We did the Passionate Tour (at March 2020 values, $ 5000 per person) on the occasion of my wife's birthday. We really got a huge disappointment, being the only activity in our entire trip that we did not enjoy. 2 wineries are visited, with tasting, and then lunch is served in a third winery with pairing. Clos de los siete is an undertaking of 5 foreign wineries, which work together, and organize these visits. We played Rolland, Diamandes and lunch in Monteviejo. The only positive: the two visits by the wineries were very good, with a lot of personalized explanation, which we enjoyed. The rest, all negative. The two tastings, medium category wines within each winery, and the quantity is very brief. Considering what was paid, it is nonsense. Then we go to the worst. Lunch with pairing. Bad food, bad pairing with the wines, and again they are mid-range wines. Let's remember again that we paid $ 5000. It is not worth it at all, especially with the offers that are in other wineries in the area. We feel totally free. Having booked 2 months in advance, we couldn't even choose between the available tables. The table near the gazebo, with the best view, was unoccupied, but "reserved by the manager". Needless to say, it was not even occupied during our entire stay. A total disaster. To finish everything, we were not even offered to go buy the wines from the wineries. In short, they don't care about the customer. Total disappointment, especially with Monteviejo, of which we are faithful followers. I would not put a handle on visiting them, knowing the type of attention one receives, for less money, in places like La Azul or Casa Vigil. Do not go!!!
