Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot. No, you’re not in France; you’re just 90 km from Colonia, on an estancia producing great wine, food and relaxation.
LUXURY HOTELS IN URUGUAY

WELL ESTABLISHED ESTANCIA

Close your eyes and sip a glass of fruity, supple Cabernet Franc and you could easily imagine yourself in a small, exclusive vineyard deep in the heart of France.

But open your eyes and you’re unmistakably in Uruguay’s San José province. The lush green paddock full of Criollo horses. The sloping roofed ranch house. The wide open spaces. The fragrance of parrillas and planchas wafting over from the estancia’s restaurant – they all confirm that you’re staying at Finca Piedra.

And the wine? Decades past French vine stock was planted in the stony ground and, cooled by gentle breezes, grew to produce luscious grapes for Tannat – Uruguay’s iconic wine – as well as a whole variety of connoisseurs’ delights.

“A SEAMLESS AND MEMORABLE SRI LANKA JOURNEY”
Ayesha was patient as I explored different options and took the time to understand exactly what I wanted for a special birthday celebration. The human-led service really stood out throughout. The hospitality at every property was exceptional, and our guide went out of their way to add thoughtful touches, including small surprises for our children. It all came together to create a truly memorable trip, combining the magic of Sri Lanka with seamless, well-organised travel. The Ultimate Travel Company’s in-country partners are among the very best and consistently reliable.
