Madrid · Written by a local
The best wine bars in Madrid.
Three neighbourhoods, fifteen wine bars, fifteen completely different concepts. This is the list we actually send friends when they ask where to drink in Madrid — no tourist traps, no places paying to be on lists. Just the ones we keep going back to.
5 wine bars · La Latina
Old Madrid at its best: tiny tabernas, natural wine and glasses poured among locals. Perfect before or after vermouth hour.

A classic, no Instagram needed.

5 wine bars · Chueca
The liveliest wine scene in the centre: stylish little bars where the list is short, the music is good and dinner often turns into a night out.
