Description
Finca Adalgisa is an early 20th century manor house and vineyard estate in the heart of Argentina’s premier wine-growing region. It is a charming family home converted a few years ago by Gabriela Fulotti (a third generation Argentinian/Italian) into the first boutique hotel and winery in Mendoza.
Although secluded and private, Finca Adalgisa is conveniently located within easy reach of Mendoza and is in walking distance of a thriving village community with local shops and restaurants.
Finca Adalgisa has 11 comfortable en-suite guest rooms (in two buildings, the La Casa Vieja and La Casa de Piedra), 5 of which are suites. The guest rooms are decorated with local tapestries and handicrafts. There is also an outdoor swimming pool surrounded by Finca Adalgisa’s own small Malbec vineyard and a conservatory perfect for tasting the local wine and cheese (tastings are available daily). Visit the market in the nearby town, follow the wine trail or relax in the thermal baths of Cacheuta.
