Climate conditions make Spain the world’s top wine producer since 2013, with the largest planted surface area of vineyards in the world. In fact, its potential is such that in 2014 Spain also became the world’s biggest wine exporter. Catalonia in particular has a long history of wine production and nowadays is responsible for producing some of the most prestigious wines in Spain.

We tried 5 wines in total (one cava, 2 whites, and 2 reds) from the Catalonia region and learned so much from our sommelier! The tastings were accompanied by bread, meat, and cheese typical of the area. The whole tour was laid back and informative set in an informal atmosphere that was encouraging and inclusive. We walked away with great new friends and a lot more knowledge about Spanish wines! This was a highlight of our trip and I highly recommend it!

It was lovely to sit around one big table in a great establishment - a fantastic large wine shop. We tasted really interesting wines with generous pours and top-ups and had some great authentic tapas. Very highly recommended!
