Beautiful building but not worth a visit

As other people have been writing, it is more like a drinking competition with a lot of social pressure (drinking cheap bad wine) rather than wine tasting. Everyone drinking from the same glass is a Tarijeñan tradition but I would prefer not having to share...More

Roast Pork with Crackling

You get two large chunks of pork (called Chancho en la Cruz) with choklo and salad. Incredibly good value at only 60 Bs. The locally made wine is also very good.

VIVA tours wine tour: Ridiculous, skip it!

Of course, in Tarija you need to try the Bolivian wine: We opted for the more expensive Ruta 4 with Vivo Tours (the most reputable agency, according to the guide book and also out hotel staff), to be sure to have some nice wine tasting...More

Wine and wine-tasting is a joke

We went there during our ruta-del-vino-tour by vivatours. We didn't eat in la casa vieja so my review is concerning the bodega-visit, wine-tasting and wines of the bodega, not the restaurant. We didn't get any information about the bodega. Then we stayed in a circle...More

Nice but not soo interesting

It's a nice place, we didn't want to drink with the tours because they often have you drinking fast and a lot. We came around five in the afternoon and in low season so it was not a lot of people and the wine yards...More

Tour

You can use a tour company to go to this winery as well as a few others. It makes for a very fun day. The wine isn't the bed, but it is cool to visit the highest wineries in the world!

It' a drinking game - not a Wine tasting

We were placed in a small room about 20 people, who all had to share 1 glass of each wine, and if the last in line did not drink up they would get a punishment. I guess it's pretty fun if that's what your looking...More

Beautiful scenery, average wine

The porch of casa vieja offers beautiful views of the vines backed by the shadowy outlines of the mountains. Our group also enjoyed the pollo picante and saice dishes served there, but if you're looking for high quality wine, Casa Vieja was not our favorite....More
