Wine is undoubtedly a huge part of Spanish culture. Although most people think of wines produced in the north of Spain, Andalusia is quickly becoming a hub of unique, delicious wines for you to enjoy.

While perhaps best known for delicious sherries, the south of Spain also has some beautiful wines from wineries that are breaking the mould when it comes to vino production. And with cosy wine bars dotted throughout the city, it’s only right that there is also a selection of great wine tastings to participate in while you’re in Seville. So pull up a chair and learn from the experts at our favorite wine tastings in Seville!

Lama La Uva

With a cozy location behind the iconic Las Setas monument, Lama La Uva is an amazing space to enjoy some unexpected wines and pairings. Founded just over a year ago, this passion project is part wine shop and part tasting space. However, what really makes this establishment special is owner Ana, a fountain of knowledge on all of the wines she has in stock, be they iconic Riojas or lesser known Andalusian varieties. You can swing by the shop anytime and chat to Ana about her vino selection, or come to one of her wine tastings hosted every Thursday. Additionally, you can contact her directly to organize a special private tasting, tailored exactly to your needs. With a knowledgeable host, an amazing wine and food selection and a comfortable space to enjoy them in, you can see why this is one of our favorite wine tastings in Seville.

In these establishments, locals would swing by and taste some of the finest produce available before making their purchase. With a huge selection of wines from all over Spain, you’re bound to find something you’ll absolutely love.

Although official tastings can be organized through the website, you can also just pop into the shop unannounced. There, you can sip some wine and pick the expert staffs’ brains on which is the best variety for you. They’ll even help you pick out some local cheeses, olives and ham products to pair with your newly acquired drink.
