Món Vínic - Bar de Vins i Formatges

15 Best Wine Bars in Barcelona

"Monvínic is the Sagrada Familia of Barcelona’s wine scene; it's iconic and dramatic (and, in this case, finished). Whereas the restaurant that used to be here is sadly closed, the retail side of the business is still alive and kicking, along with the bar (hallelujah!). So, pull up a pew alongside one of the bottle-lined walls of this temple and prepare to worship. The sommeliers here are at the top of their game. Director Delia Garcia has switched up Monviníc’s sustainability credentials, curating a selection of organic artisanal wines and cheeses you won’t find anywhere else. The old Monvínic stocked around 3,000 labels, the new one has approximately 4,500 references, the vast majority which are organic or natural, made by small-scale producers. With around 30 bottles available daily by the glass, a little wine know-how—or a basic sense of what you like and don’t like—will come in handy. Note that the list veers into unusual parts of the globe, like Slovenia and Greece." - Gemma Askham
