Alicante Wine Tasting and Tapas: Five Wines, Five Bites

Discover Alicante’s rich flavors through expert stories and perfect pairings in an intimate setting.

An Alicante wine tasting and tapas experience where you taste five carefully selected wines (reds, whites, and everything between) paired with five artisanal tapas designed to complement each pour. A sommelier guides you through the history and production of each wine while you eat, and the club tailors the evening to your preferences with lighting, music and aromas. Dietary restrictions are accommodated. Children under 18 receive non-alcoholic drinks.

The experience

You've got a free evening in Alicante and you're not interested in wandering. This is a sit-down activity: you arrive at the club, settle in, and spend the next two and a half hours moving through five wines and five tapas without having to decide what comes next. The sommelier does the talking (explaining where each wine comes from, how it's made, what you're tasting when you taste it), and the food arrives timed to each pour. The tapas are built to work with the wines, not against them, so the pairing is the point. Each bite either echoes or contrasts with what's in your glass in a way that makes both of them taste sharper.

The club itself is set up for this: intimate, not loud, with control over the light and the music so the experience doesn't feel like you're sitting in a bar. The team knows Alicante's wine history (the region has one of the deepest wine traditions in the world), and they're built around sharing it. If you have dietary needs, they work around them. If you're under 18, you get the same tapas and the same sommelier talk, but the wines swap for non-alcoholic drinks so the pairing still holds.

The evening is personalized: they tailor it to what you want to get out of it, whether that's learning or just tasting, whether you're coming alone or with friends. It's the kind of place where you feel like you're part of something, not just passing through.

Top questions

Can children come?

Yes. Ticket types: Child (2 to 17 years).

What exactly do I taste during the five wine tastings?

The sommelier guides you through five carefully selected Alicante wines: a mix of robust reds, fresh whites, and varieties in between. Each one is chosen to show you something different about the region's wine-making, and the sommelier explains the history, production process, and what makes each one distinctive before you taste it.

How do the tapas work with the wines?

Each of the five artisanal tapas is designed to pair with one of the wines, so the food and drink enhance each other. The tapas range from classics to contemporary takes on Alicante cuisine, and every bite is meant to either echo or contrast with what you're drinking so both taste better together.

How long does the whole experience take?

The wine tasting and tapas club runs for two and a half hours, which gives you time to move through each wine and tapas without rushing and to absorb what the sommelier is teaching you.

What if I have dietary restrictions?

The club is happy to accommodate all dietary restrictions, so let them know when you book what you need to avoid or prefer, and they'll adjust the tapas accordingly.

Is the club accessible if I use a wheelchair?

Yes, the club is fully wheelchair accessible. All areas and surfaces are accessible, and transportation options nearby are wheelchair accessible as well.
