Cooking Class & Asado Experience at Bodega Norton

We will pick you up to enjoy a full-day experience that invites you to discover Argentine family cooking, the kind that comes to life on weekends around the fire, a shared table, and wine enjoyed without rushing. In the traditional setting of Bodega Norton, you will take part in a hands-on cooking class that brings together gastronomy, wine, and local customs.

Throughout the day, you will learn about the Argentine asado tradition, tour the winery facilities, and prepare empanadas in an artisanal way: working the dough, learning about the filling, shaping them by hand, and tasting them once they are ready. The experience continues with dessert preparation and shared moments around a classic picada, artisanal breads, and wines from the winery. Lunch is the highlight of the day, featuring an asado prepared by the chef and their team, enjoyed in a relaxed and convivial atmosphere.

At SAK Wine & Travel, we promote experiences that respect the environment and local traditions, supporting sustainable and responsible tourism.

What do you need for this tour?

Essential items

We suggest you to bring these items for personal use to make your excursion perfect:

Small backpack.
Extra mineral water.
Personal care items (lip balm with sunscreen, sunscreen, antibacterial gel/wipes, insect repellent).
Special clothing: comfortable clothing appropriate to the weather forecast and footwear suitable for the activity.

Safety tips: Inform the guide or driver about any illness, allergy or physical restriction. Remember to bring your medication and administration instructions.
