La Vinya del Senyor

It doesn’t get much better than spending an afternoon on the terrace of La Vinya del Senyor taking in the glorious Gothic facade of the church of Santa María del Mar—especially if there’s a wedding taking place. This vinoteca offers a bi-weekly selection of more than 20 wines by the glass—still, sparkling, and fortified—and an interesting menu of small plates to accompany them. The selection includes oysters, moixama (cured tuna) with almonds, Ibérico charcuterie, and excellent artisanal cheeses. The enthusiasts who run the place can help you figure out which goes best with which. If you’re buying a bottle, there’s a truly spectacular list of hundreds of wines from around the world.
