Descrizione
Explore Barcelona's bodegas on a guided tour. Sip on cava, taste wines from the barrel, and enjoy a properly served vermouth. Savor preserved delicacies, cured meats, and hearty stews.
Begin your tour in front of one of the city’s most beautiful century-old markets, El Mercat de Sant Antoni, located in the Eixample district. Take a look at some of the key ingredients that define the menu of Barcelona’s iconic bodegas: vibrant vegetables, artisanal charcuterie, pickles and olives, as well as both cured and fresh fish.
From there, explore remnants of the old city walls before heading to one of the most emblematic bodegas in the area for a glass of cava, Catalonia’s celebrated sparkling wine. Next, make your way into the Raval neighborhood, the southwestern edge of Barcelona’s historic Old City, to visit a selection of traditional bodegas, each with its own personality, yet all sharing a deep-rooted connection to wine, old-school tapas, and their local communities.
Taste wines poured straight from the barrel and enjoy a properly served vermouth before walking back to L’Eixample for a curated tasting of some of Catalonia’s most essential wines. Throughout the tour, enjoy a rich variety of preserved delicacies: cured meats, salted fish, and marinated seafood that reflect the Mediterranean’s ancient methods of preservation – practices still alive and reimagined in today’s bodegas.
And of course, don’t miss out on the other cornerstone of these beloved establishments: slow-cooked, hearty meat stews that speak to the soul of traditional urban cuisine. Along the way, indulge in a few local sweet and liquid culinary surprises — the kind that round out the bodega experience with just the right contrast.
