EXPERIENCE DESCRIPTION
Tasting with Jérôme
Catalonia holds a treasure in its vineyards, a heritage that might make you forget even Chardonnay. Can you imagine passing a national treasure every time you leave Barcelona without ever noticing? We're talking about Xarel·lo, one of the white varieties with the greatest gastronomic and ageing potential in the Iberian Peninsula and, even so, one of the least known to the general public.
In this workshop we'll taste its different faces, try to tell regions apart and debate whether it deserves a place in our personal top list.
How it works
Jérôme will guide the tasting of 5 wines while we talk about what we find in each glass. We'll compare styles, share impressions and explore together what makes a wine good, beyond the label.
No experience is required. The session is designed for anyone who wants to enjoy wine without prejudice, better understand what they're drinking and choose with their own judgement.
JÉRÔME
Jérôme Siffermann has spent more than 15 years immersed in the world of natural, artisanal and high-end wine. His experience has been built through tastings, travel and encounters with producers.
He has been working at Cuvée 3000 for over 10 years, and previously worked at Lavinia (Paris) and Wein & Glas (Berlin).
He enjoys sharing his passion for wine, always with an open and curious outlook, attentive to how the sector evolves and far from labels or closed views.
