DAILY WINE TASTINGS IN BILBAO
Discover the flavours, history and character of Northern Spain through our daily sommelier-led wine tastings.
​
Designed for both beginners and experienced wine lovers, this relaxed and interactive experience takes you on a journey through two of Spain's most celebrated wine regions: the Basque Country and Rioja. You'll discover why the fresh, Atlantic-influenced Txakoli has become one of Spain's most distinctive wines, learn about the native Hondarrabi Zuri grape that gives it its vibrant personality, and explore the world-renowned vineyards and traditions that have made Rioja famous across the globe.
​
During the tasting, you'll enjoy five carefully selected wines, thoughtfully chosen to showcase the diversity of these regions, accompanied by a selection of artisan Basque cheeses and Iberian charcuterie.
​
Hosted in our exclusive Sip Sip Tasting Room, each tasting lasts approximately 90 minutes and is limited to just 13 guests (larger groups available for private experiences), ensuring an intimate experience with plenty of opportunities to ask questions and interact with our professional sommeliers.
PRIVATE WINE TASTINGS & EVENTS
Looking for something truly unique? Our bespoke private wine tastings are the perfect way to celebrate a special occasion, entertain clients or bring people together over exceptional wines.
​
Hosted in our exclusive Sip Sip Tasting Room, our sommeliers can create a fully tailored experience around your interests, whether it's Rioja, Txakoli, Champagne, Burgundy, natural wines, blind tastings or any other wine region or theme. Our private tasting room comfortably accommodates up to 20 guests for seated tastings, while larger groups of up to 45 guests can enjoy exclusive wine experiences throughout our wine bar.
​
For companies looking for something more interactive, we also offer our Wine Master Experience, a fun, hands-on team-building activity inspired by MasterChef, but for wine lovers. Working in teams, participants take on a series of exciting wine challenges, from blind tastings and grape variety identification to food pairing and wine knowledge quizzes, encouraging collaboration, communication and a healthy dose of friendly competition.
​
Private wine experiences can also be combined with our group menus, wine pairing menus or bespoke catering, creating a complete gastronomic experience for corporate events, incentive groups, birthdays, family celebrations and private gatherings.
