The saddle rocks gently beneath you as the Mendoza sky shifts to bruise-orange; the Andes stand across the valley like a patient audience. On this evening ride in Lunlunta, horses thread old irrigation paths and low vineyards while the river ahead gleams and seems to dare you closer. Sunset folds the vines into long shadows and the guide points out the best lookout — a stretch of flat riverbank with a clear line to the high peaks.
