Just a quick posting for all those looking to buy wine in Madrid. The easiest plaace to buy wine in Madrid is in the food section of El Corté Inglés or in small stores/off licences. However, if you’re looking to find a special wine, I would recommend going to a dedicated wine merchant. Here are a couple that I know of: Lavinia, which purports to stock over 2000 Spanish wines and 2000 world wines, along with various books and accesssories. The other is Siguero on Madrid’s María de Molina, which also has a fine selection of wine.
Addresses/Information
Lavinia – José Ortega y Gasset 16 | Open: 10 a.m – 9 p.m. | Metro: Nuñez de Balboa or Serrano
Siguero – María de Molina, 70 | Metro: Avenida de America
I have a bottle which is all embossed from the inside. It has a bull fighing scene on the front and Madrid Spain on the bottom of the front. It is roughly six inches across in the shape of a coin. I am unable to find anything out about this bottle.
