Taberna ell perejil, family run small and authentic.
5. Day Trip to Jerez + Wine & Sherry Tasting
One of the absolute best experiences in our list of the top 6 wine bars & tasting experiences in and around Seville is to embark on a day trip to the beautiful city of Jerez, which is the capital of famous Spanish sherry in all its delightful varieties, from very dry to dessert wines as well as Cadiz, on the seafront. Unlike well-travelled attractions such as Cordoba or Granada, Cadiz & Jerez have got their own soul, history, charm and claim to fame. In Jerez, you could try both sherry tasting or Spanish red wine and visit an old and family-run wine cellar, the world-famous Bodegas Lustau, founded in 1896! The perfect way to immerse yourself in the fantastic world of Spanish wine if sherry is not what you are looking for!
