Restaurant
For both guests and day-visitors, Posada Salentein offers an ambience of rest and relaxation, and an exclusive restaurant to enjoy first-rate cuisine, paired with the finest wines from Bodegas Salentein.

Our menu includes the best regional and international dishes, prepared with such culinary techniques as terracotta oven, barbecue and vertical spit.

The cozy restaurant with the fireplace and salamander stoves has extraordinary views of the Merlot and Pinot Noir vineyards.

Our Cuisine
In preparing our dishes, the first thing that comes to mind is to use local produce, including lamb, a selection of beef cuts, pork, a variety of fresh vegetables, and seasonal fruits. We aim at the best possible quality, taking care of products to preserve their properties intact, and creating tasty dishes, done at the right point, and attractively served.

Seasonal fruit marmalades served with camp bread for breakfast, crunchy butter croissants and whole wheat bread— we dive with both hands into every dish that comes out of our kitchen.

We cater for two cuisine styles: brasserie, with tasty meals smoked on wood or cooked on the plow disk, hot casseroles in the iron pan, special beef cuts barbecue, delicious empanadas and bread loaves baked in the terracotta oven, and our vertical spit, with the most juicy and tasty ribs.

The other style is a selection of our three-course menus: starter, main course and dessert. We welcome guests with a glass of wine and an appetizer with the flavors of traditional Argentine cuisine, such as crispy empanadas or a delicious tomatican (corn and tomatoes stew), paired with a carefully selected wine from the Salentein Family of Wines. This way we make sure our patrons can taste a wide variety of our excellent wines.

We delight visitors with warm and personalized service. Our waiting staff makes them feel at home, and with their professionalism they convey the essence of the landscape, the mountains and the relaxed atmosphere.

Wine Interest & Activities
From the vineyards in the upper reaches of the Valle de Uco, high on the eastern slopes of the Andes, Salentein is changing the face of Argentine winegrowing.

The magnificent bodega, designed for both form and function in the shape of a cross, allows for customized gentle handling of the grapes, reducing the distance wine needs to be moved between winemaking steps.

Each of the wings is a small winery with two levels-a ground level that houses stainless steel tanks and French wooden vats for fermentation and storage, and an underground level for aging wine in oak casks. The two levels allow wine to flow from the tanks to the barrels by a traditional gravity transfer system.

The four wings converge in a circular central chamber, which resembles an amphitheater and was inspired by ancient classical temples.

The Salentein estate consists of 2,000 hectares (4,942 acres), 700 hectares (1,124 acres) of which are planted to grapes in three estate “fincas”. The fincas, where grapes are grown at a range of altitudes among the highest in the world, are irrigated with pure mountain run-off, which creates lower pH in the grape, resulting in higher acidity, more color in the wine, and greater ageability. The region´s thermal amplitude ranges as much as 16°C (29°F) from daytime highs to nighttime lows.
