Serra Gaucha Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

Garibaldi
Beautiful winery in the Vale dos Vinhedos. A nice middle ground between the huge operations at Salton and Miolo and smaller boutique wineries, Cave de Pedra is situated in a modern castle. You can take a tour (takes around a half hour) which will allow you access to the castle's roof for views of countryside.

One of my favorite experiences during our Bento Goncalves trip was stumbling upon Casa Postal Vinicola and Bistro. It was a rainy Sunday, after visiting nearby Salton, and didn't know what to do. We saw signs for Casa Postal so headed that way. We were the only people in the place when we came in from the rain, which may have thrown some people off but for us made it feel like an adventure. The woman working the winery (and the bistro!) didn't speak English and we speak very poor Portuguese but we managed to communicate with each other using Google translate. She led us through a tasting of their wines, before cooking us an amazing lunch (pictured) in the bistro upstairs. This is a newer place in the area, which explains the lack of other patrons, but I doubt it will stay empty for very long. The wines and food were very good and the service above and beyond.

Amazing restaurant in Bento Goncalves. A nice break from all the (delicious) Italian food in the area, Bento Goncalves focuses on shared dishes. The owner was so gracious and gave us a table even though they were at capacity with reservations, as long as we were able to finish our meals by the time the first reservation arrived.
