Discover more about Bodega Viña Alicia

Viña Alicia is a boutique winery located in the heart of Mendoza's prestigious Luján de Cuyo region. Founded in 1996 by Alicia Mateu Arizu, the winery is a testament to her family's three-generation commitment to viticulture and winemaking. Alicia, with over 25 years of research, aimed to create elegant wines, and the winery has since gained international recognition. The winery is situated amidst a 10-hectare vineyard, cultivating not only classic varietals like Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, and Petit Verdot but also rare finds in Argentina, such as Nebbiolo, Grenache Noir and Carignan. Some vines are up to 150 years old. This experimental approach, championed by Alicia and now her son Rodrigo Arizu, sets Viña Alicia apart from more conventional Mendoza wineries. Viña Alicia produces a limited quantity of wines annually, focusing on quality over quantity. The winery combines traditional and modern winemaking techniques to craft wines that reflect the unique terroir of Luján de Cuyo. Visitors can explore the vineyards, learn about the winemaking process, and taste a range of wines, from medium to premium selections. The winery is generally open Monday to Friday, offering a serene atmosphere for relaxation and wine appreciation.
