For the 12th consecutive year, Rally de las Bodegas (RDLB) is bringing together competitive motorsport racers whose love for classic sports cars can only matched by their love for wine.
Organized by the Mendoza Classic & Sport Club, RDLB is one of the most important events for historic cars in Argentina. Annually included on The Fédération Internationale des Véhicules Anciens (FIVA) international event calendar, RDLB continues to be an attractive event in both sports and tourism in the Mendoza province.
RDLB is the only event of its kind that combines competitive motorsport with an elegant experience along Mendoza's wine routes. Drivers will cover approximately 700 km over the course of three days, stopping along the way to enjoy gourmet food, Polo exhibits and winery visits set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Andes.
Starting and finishing in the center of Mendoza, the event kicks off on Thursday, March 13 with The Pulenta Estate Challenge and an opening cocktail reception at the Park Hyatt Mendoza. The next morning drivers will leave the city and fuel up with breakfast at Finca Agostino, stop for lunch at Villas Del Malbec and end the day at Cheval des Andes. The final day, Saturday the 15th, will include a first stop at Bodega Dante Robino and lunch at Francis Mallmann´s Siete Fuegos at The Vines of Mendoza. The final stage will end at Bodega Los Toneles before drivers return to the city for an awards ceremony and dinner to conclude the event.
