TABERNA BASARAS

"Classic Bilbao tavern specialized in : - national and international wines - vermouths and classic aperitif cocktails - pintxos and raciones with all the flavor of our Bilbao of always." CURIOSITIES: What a wonderful place, wines, pintxos and people.... A traditional tavern, family atmosphere, great pintxos and memories hanging on the wall. With a R&D in blackboards from with about 100 wine references and glasses that more than an awarded restaurant would like to have in. Taberna Basaras is a winning horse if you visit Bilbao, all standing, yes, the high tables are limited and fully booked, that is the real essence. A tavern founded by a grandfather and now continued by his grandson, Jon - not forgetting Beatriz, his mother - a sommelier with his WSET 3 degree hanging on the wall with his shy smile and willing to talk about wines until, according to him, he bores you. For winelovers, watch out for the little blackboard with wines in fluorescent colors, he has real unicorns by the glass, Jon doesn't hesitate a second to open a bottle. Just amazing. LOCATION: Old town, Bilbao.
