On first glance we thought we were back somewhere in Mendoza. A walkabout the shop proved this was one of the better selections of wines ( certainly the Red) we had seen in awhile, outside of Mendoza. The shop is a wonderful combination of rustic humorous adornments and given that they combine this huge selection of wines with tastings and yes even morning coffee to start your day... they have a quote for that there as well. My favourite was “I Make Wine Disappear. What is your Super Power? “ Yesterday we tasted white, this morning it was Cappuccino and blue cheese with whole grain bread. A Very Definite Place to Visit. Big thank you to the friendly and informative ex Buenos Aires young man ..Fredrico .. apologies for any mis-spelling.

Although it's a bit far from the city center, it's worthy to visit if you want to have an idea of the rich history of this region. The museum has a timeline that accompanies you through all the rooms. It begins with an exposition of different kind of dinosaurs found in Patagonia and rebuilt by scientists. Then, it explains how human beings arrived to this remote place and what they left that let archaeologists and paleontologists know about their habits. Besides it tells how European colonized/invaded the place and treated native people as animals, a shameful history that unfortunately happened not only in Argentina but all along Latinamerica. The last room displays a collection of photos of native people and their sad stories, a wonderful reflection to appraise our American roots that make us different from the rest of the world.
