El Tamboret

Tarragona


Hidden along a narrow lane near the Plaça del Forum, this delightful jewel-box-sized wine bar serves up a well-curated selection of wines from across Catalonia. Try a luscious Artigas from Priorat country or a bubbly from cava luminaries like Miquel Pons. Selections change regularly, and the friendly French owner is happy to guide you toward something extraordinary.

Cheese and charcuterie platters along with pâté and foie gras make nice accompaniments to the wines.
