About the workshop

Spain is not a story to tell. It is an experience to live.

Join us for an exciting wine journey through Spain — a country with a rich wine tradition, diverse terroirs, authentic local grape varieties and distinctive wine styles.

Led by sommelier Aleksandar Milivojević, we will explore Spain's best-known wine regions — from the Atlantic vineyards of Rías Baixas in Galicia, through the striking landscapes of Priorat and the celebrated Ribera del Duero, all the way to Rioja, a true kingdom of fine Spanish wines.

We will discover the characteristics of Spain's indigenous grape varieties, the influence of climate and terroir, and traditional and contemporary approaches to winemaking.
