Description
Enjoy a gourmet dining and wine experience where past and present collide in Barcelona’s medieval Born neighborhood. We’ll dive into the world of Catalan wines, and taste a delicious mixture of modern and traditional tapas, eating and drinking like a local.
Please note that this description is an example and stops or tastes may vary depending on the season, day of the week, and group size. Regardless of where your tour goes, you always have a delicious experience.
You'll start the evening by getting acquainted with the local food in the best way possible by sampling a range of different classic and modern small bites at a trendy tapas bar. Enjoy these shared small plates with a glass of Cava, a Spanish sparkling wine produced primarily in Catalonia.
Next, visit a tapas bar that specializes in combining Catalan and Latin American cuisines. Sip a refreshing glass of white wine as well as a tasting of direct-from-the-tap vermouth. You’ll soon see (and hear) why this fortified wine is making a comeback. You'll also get to taste a variety of iconic Barcelona tapas and freshly prepared delights in which the owner pays respect to her native Argentina as well as her adopted home of Catalonia.
End the evening on a high note at one of the most sought-after bookings in town. This family-run restaurant is the place to be if you want to truly understand tapas culture in Barcelona. Sit down for your tapas dinner with dishes the reflect traditional Catalan flavors paired with a beautiful Catalan red wine. You'll finish on a sweet note with a regional dessert wine.
By the end of your evening, you’ll have sampled the quintessential cuisine of Barcelona and discovered the larger history of tapas in the city.
