Probably my best excursion in Barcelona - For some reason, I had the impression this was a bar hopping adventure. it was so much better than that! It was a fabulous 4-course dinner with wine pairings, all local foods and wines (probably worth 2-3 times the cost of the adventure). Plus Vincent provided a great education on all of it. It was lovely.

Exceeded expectations - This experience was a birthday present for my daughter on her 21st. Our Sommelier, Alice, was super knowledgeable about all of the wine and cheese we tasted, and made the event really enjoyable. It was incredibly good value, and every bit delicious from beginning to end. The most memorable part however was meeting great people of all different nationalities and backgrounds, and everyone having a fabulous time. Lots of laughs, and lots of great wine and cheese! Recommended.

Much to enjoy! - We had such a lovely time at this wine tasting. I have been on many wine tasting excursions and this one was wonderful. Vivienne (sp?) was lovely, extraordinarily knowledgeable about wine, and yet presented everything in an accessible way. I had a lot of questions, and she answered them all with a smile! The wine's were lovely (Spanish wines always are!) and there was an appropriate variety of white, red, and cava. And then there was the cheese! And the event was in an appropriately tasteful--even elegant--venue. There was much to enjoy. Thanks!

Great wine, great experience, fantastic memories!!! - Great experience! Our sommelier, Vivi, quickly established a comfortable yet professional atmosphere. She tailored the presentation to the varied experience levels in our group so that no one was bored or overwhelmed by the information and ensured everyone who chose to participate had the opportunity to do so.

Fun group wine experience! - A surprisingly elegant gem of a location buried in the labyrinth of the Gothic District.
The Spanish wines were presented knowledgeably by Claudia…an Italian…who represented Spain enthusiastically.
Our expectations and presumptions of quality and taste were corrected…and at least two new “favorites” we’re established.
As for the cheeses offered … not so impressed. Lacked any depth of pairing info.
But met some fun people!
