How a free wine tasting works (no fuss)
The idea is simple: open bottles, ready glasses, and honest recommendations. You come, you taste, and you ask anything you like. If you fall in love with a wine, you can take it home; if not, you leave with clear ideas (and new discoveries).
Why Idyllica?
- Wide selection: we work with a broad range of wines so you can find your match.
- Real guidance: we guide you by style (fresh, oaked, mineral, natural, sparkling…), not by “posturing”.
- No pressure: you come to enjoy and learn.
Where it is: free wine tasting at our Barcelona shops
1) Idyllica Gràcia
Address: Rambla de Prat, 11 (Gràcia), Barcelona.
2) Idyllica Bruc (Eixample Dret)
Address: Carrer del Bruc, 172 (Eixample Dret), Barcelona.
Tip: if you have time, the Bruc area is perfect to round off the plan with a stroll through the Eixample and, if you feel like it, a great food stop.
What wines you can taste at the tasting
Tastings change week to week and with the season, so every visit can be different. You’ll often find:
- Whites (fresh, fuller-bodied, with or without aging)
- Reds (from light to more structured)
- Sparkling wines (for aperitif or celebrations)
- Curiosities: lesser-known grapes, small projects, limited editions
If you’re looking for something specific (for example, “a red for meat and another for pasta”, or “a food-friendly white”), tell us when you arrive: we’ll tailor the tasting to your goal.
Tips to make the most of your tasting (and choose the right bottle)
- Start with your taste: do you prefer fruit-forward, fresh, oaked, dry, creamy?
- Define the occasion: aperitif, dinner, gift, pairing with cheese, fish, meat…
- Taste by comparison: two wines in a row with different styles will clarify your palate.
- Ask anything: region, grape, soil, winemaking… it’s part of the fun.
- Snap a label photo: so you remember what you loved (and what you didn’t).
