What to expect

You'll arrive at a central Madrid venue and meet your guide and fellow participants. The session opens with an introduction to sangria-making fundamentals — the balance of wine, fruit selection, spicing, and timing. You'll then prepare your own blend under the guide's direction, learning how different fruits and spices shift the flavour profile.

Once blended, your sangria will rest briefly while the guide explains the pairing logic. You'll then taste your creation alongside local Spanish cheeses, comparing notes with others in the group. The session wraps with time to enjoy what you've made and ask any final questions about technique or regional variations.

Good to know

This suits anyone with even casual interest in wine, food, or Spanish culture — no prior experience needed. The pace is relaxed and social rather than intensive. Allergies to specific fruits, spices or dairy (cheese) should be flagged when booking if relevant. The venue is fully wheelchair accessible with level surfaces throughout, and prams are welcome for infants. Group size is small enough to feel intimate.
