Wine Tasting Experience With A Professional Sommelier In Valencia City Center
Valencia
Overview
After more than 10 years of working in restaurants, I decided to take the next step and use my knowledge of wine in a more creative way. In February 2021 I left my hometown, Amsterdam, to host wine tastings here in Valencia. I have developed myself by working in some of the best Michelin starred restaurants in Europe. Besides the practical work I got educated in the highest Dutch wine studies, “Vinologen” and in the highest level of the most well-known wine studies worldwide: WSET4. What distinguishes a wine tasting with me from the rest? My personality and ability to treat people and give them an unforgettable evening. A unique location with a guaranteed feel-good atmosphere and ultimately an enormous repertoire of wine knowledge, so that you will hardly find a question that I cannot answer.

Reviews for Wine Tasting Experience With A Professional Sommelier In Valencia City Center
Good first experience
T1383YZlisal
Our first wine tasting was a positive experience. We sampled a variety of red and white wines, each with thorough explanations that helped us distinguish their qualities. However, parking is very limited and busy, so it's advisable to arrive early. You might need to search for parking further away to avoid risk getting a ticket. Despite these challenges, the wine tasting itself was enjoyable and offered a great opportunity to socialise with others.
Overall good experience

This was our first wine tasting, and we found it to be a positive experience. There was a variety of red and white wines, each well explained, allowing us to distinguish differences in quality. Be aware that parking is very limited and busy, so arriving early is advisable. You may need to drive around to find parking far away and risk getting a parking ticket. Despite this, the actual wine tasting was enjoyable and provided a great opportunity to socialise with others.
Expensive and lacking details

For my part, the sommelier, the presentation of the wine tasting and the place were great, but I don't see the way of presenting it as correct; They welcome you with a glass of cava, very good, but from my point of view the glass is not the correct one to drink cava (this glass is then mixed on the table with the other wine glasses because they are the same) Us during the tasting We tried 5 different wines, 3 white and 2 red, very good but on the table there were only 2 glasses per taster, they did not change them between wines, if you had any wine left from the previous one and you did not empty it, they would mix it for you . The menu lasted two hours and in that time we tried two canapés (one per person); one was a small cheese volovan with cranberry and the other a slice of bread with pâté. At the end they gave us a board with fuet, cheese and olives, for the 7 people who were at the table. We found it expensive, it is not what it seems and we think that there are details that can be improved. The wines were very good.
Wine time, fun time

Disappointing, cash grab
Marta_T
As a wine lover, looked forward to this experience only to be disappointed. The event was way overbooked with about 35 people on this tiny terrace. The actual occupancy should’ve been max 10-15 people. Everyone was sardined in and couldn’t move nor hear the explanation. Speaking of sardines, the “high-end petit fours” were sardine paste on white bread and a whipped gorgonzola thingie with fig, along with plain white bread. All of which were served late in the tasting and were of questionable taste level.
All in all, the wine selection was fine, the host provided some information although it was hard to hear with all the people there and hard to get closer as there was no space.
Quite bad, wouldn’t recommend, go to any bar instead.
