Wine, Tapas & Theatre: A Playful Wine Tasting in Barcelona

Taste 5 carefully selected wines with 5 tapas in Barcelona. Discover Catalan and Spanish wine culture through stories, humour and a theatrical twist in Assalto’s atmospheric cellar.
Wine tasting — but not as you know it

Wine has a serious reputation. We don't think it always deserves one.

Join us at Assalto, a restaurant and wine bar in the heart of Barcelona, for a relaxed and entertaining tasting experience featuring 5 carefully selected wines paired with 5 delicious tapas.

Discover different grapes, wine regions, aromas, flavours and styles while learning how to taste wine and, most importantly, how to enjoy it. Along the way, you'll discover more about Catalan and Spanish wine culture and the stories behind the bottles in your glass.

Five wines. Five bites. Plenty of stories.

Each wine is paired with a specially selected tapa, creating five different combinations to explore.

The pairings reveal something you can't really learn from a wine textbook: wine changes when you eat. A salty ingredient can make a wine taste different. Fat can soften certain sensations. Acidity can refresh a rich dish. A particular flavour can suddenly make an aroma in the glass appear.

You'll experience these combinations for yourself while your host explains what's happening — without drowning you in complicated wine vocabulary.

The wines and tapas may change according to the season and availability, keeping every selection fresh, interesting and focused on quality.

A wine tasting with a little theatre

Here's the twist.

Our sommelier was born into a family of wine specialists, so wine runs in his blood. Unfortunately for his family, so does a rather excessive amount of creativity.

Instead of a formal wine lecture, expect stories, humour, questions, tasting challenges, unexpected discoveries and a touch of theatre.

You'll learn about wine, absolutely — but you'll also laugh, taste, guess and compare. You might even question everything you thought you knew about wine.

Whether you're a complete beginner or already know your way around a wine list, this experience is designed to be enjoyed without taking wine — or yourself — too seriously.

Wine, food, stories and Barcelona

The experience takes place at Assalto Restaurant & Tapas, just steps from La Rambla, in the heart of Barcelona.

Step into the atmospheric underground cellar, take a seat, pour yourself a glass and discover a different side of wine tasting.

Come for the wine. Stay for the show.
