Barcelona for the Wine, Logroño for the Future

I’ll be spending this whole week in Spain. I’m actually already writing this post from Spain, specifically in Terrassa (near Barcelona) where the Catavino HQ (and my accommodation while here) is located.

I started my trip to Spain by having lunch at the famous Boqueria (a food lovers paradise!). Barcelona looks wonderful and I’ve only visited the market and took the bus from the airport. Tonight is time for some grilling & wine drinking, after all I’m chez Ryan and Gabriella and these two are some dedicated wine lovers.

Boqueria

From Wednesday I’ll be in Logroño at the WineFuture conference where I’ll be showing how Adegga can help wineries and doing lots of demos of the AVIN with couple of Cortes de Cima 2007 bottles.

It’s going to be interesting. Two days together with some of the more well known people in the wine world like Robert Parker, Jancis Robinson, Gary Vaynerchuck (who does WineLibraryTV and Corkd), Ryan Opaz (yes, the one from Catavino) and a few more. Some crazy numbers: almost 1000 participants, 10.700 wine glasses, 600 bottles for the grand tasting. Lots of talking, meeting, drinking coming up!

    Wow, I like that assignment almost as much as our work checking out self-catering apartments in Barcelona and Paris for our booking agency.
    There’s a shop at the edge of El Born named Vila Vinateca, Agullers 7 that you may want to visit. Fabulous selection.
