Lovely place to visit for any wine lover!
We got recommended this place by fellow hotel guests, we couldn't find any info about the prices or the way it works but on good faith we went. The way it works is that you go to the counter, you hand in an ID/driver license as deposit and you receive a card. With the card you can follow the trail of wines that they have around the store. In each section there are multiple bottles and you can select which wine you want to try and which amount. Each bottle has 3 types of amount, a little taste, a medium amount and a bigger glass. Each wine has their own price ranges. See my picture for an example.
This way you can make it as cheap or as expensive as you want. The cheapest for a little amount I saw was a port wine for €0.98 and the most expensive for a small taste around €7-8.
The staff is very kind and one of them was very knowledgeable and could give good advise.
They also have olive oils to try but also a special truffle gin.
Lovely store and lovely place to visit for any wine lover or someone looking for a place to try wine without the pressure of an audience or rush. You can totally do it at your own pace and go back and forth between sparkling, red/white/rose, port, vermouth and more.
They also have some snacks that you can order. This is were the star deduction from 5 stars to 4 stars comes into play. We ordered a "big" snack platter with some bread, cheeses and cold cuts which was €18.... However, that this is considered big is a bit shocking to me. The added picture is the cheese, cold cuts, honey and some toast. Not included was a bag with some pieces of bread and olive oil. I have had bigger plates for a lower price for sure... This could definitely be improved in my opinion. But on the other hand, we did get to try some wine and limoncello for free so it was balanced out for us, but if someone else didn't get this and paid full price for the plate, it's quite expensive for what you get.
Either way, we enjoyed the experience and I do definitely recommend a visit.
