The Best Wine Tastings in Granada
1. Petra Vinos
If anyone knows their stuff about wine, it's Fuensanta, owner of Petra Vinos. Her decades of experience in the wine industry mean that she knows each label in the shop like the back of her hand, and the shop itself is a multicultural, multifunctional space based entirely around wine. The unique tastings here tend to focus on one international winemaking region (such as Chile or France), or local Spanish bodegas. It's one of the top wine tastings in Granada due to the sheer variety of wines and creative themes.
Address: Calle Tendillas de Santa Paula, 2

La Cata con Botas is home to a wonderful selection of wines from all over the world, but they truly shine when it comes to wines produced in the Granada region.
