Vertical Barcelona
Vertical Barcelona
An Eixample wine bar built around one striking feature: a long glass-fronted wine fridge that runs the length of the room as its centrepiece. It's the project of sommeliers Bernat Voraviu and Julio Barluenga — the latter a former elBulli sommelier — with an ambitious by-the-glass list and a kitchen carrying the stamp of chef Jordi Vilà. A serious, distinctive newcomer for drinking well.
Background
About Vertical Barcelona
The Story
Vertical is the wine bar for people who take the list seriously. Built in the Eixample around one striking feature, a long glass-fronted wine fridge running the length of the room as its centrepiece, it's the project of sommeliers Bernat Voraviu and Julio Barluenga, the latter a former elBulli sommelier. That pedigree shows in an ambitious by-the-glass list, with a kitchen carrying the stamp of chef Jordi Vilà to match. It's a serious, distinctive newcomer for drinking well, the kind of place where you can hand over the decision to someone who genuinely knows and be led somewhere brilliant. The strongest all-round wine bar in the city right now.
