Rioja Wine Tasting Course
Led by our in-house wine expert Jenny SIddall, the objective of the tasting is to teach you about Rioja wines and to enjoy contrasting four different wines from young, bright ‘joven’ wines to barrel-aged reserva and grand reserva wines. It is a 1.5 hour tasting through the flight of four wines guaranteed to be educational, fun and memorable.
Jenny’s six years experience working in wineries in the Rioja region coupled with her Master in Viticulture and Oenology makes her an outstanding tutor. The tasting takes place in our tasting studio in the heart of the old town every day (Monday to Friday) at 4pm. Essential to pre-book your place by calling. emailing or booking online.

What they said:
We attended one of their Spanish Wine Tastings. Located at their office In the Old Town the tasting was excellent and I would recommend San Sebastian Food to anyone who is visiting.

My wife and our two travel buddies came upon San Sebastian Food on our first day in the city. We were interested in learning more about Riojas and wow, did we find the right place to do so. Jenny conducted the tasting which involved a primer on the different classes of Rioja followed by the tasting of four wines of increasing quality. We all came away with an increased knowledge and appreciation of the wine.
Trip Advisor reviewer (delgrande)
We went to the rioja wine tasting on our short holiday in San Sebastian. It was a lovely and informative experience to add to our holiday. Jenny was really helpful and answered loads of questions about wine.

The wine tasting course was also excellent, Jenny was really friendly and knowledgeable. We enjoyed an interesting afternoon of wine tasting, learning about the region, a bit about Spanish wine in general and also got to try out the nez du vin kit (all the aromatics associated with describing wine). Very good value and very well run. Loved it!
