Bodegas Almau Bar&Terrace
Bodegas Almau has passed through 4 generations (since 1870) selling wine on Estébanes street in the historic centre of Zaragoza. In the beginning it was warehouse and a shop. 35 years ago the bar opened where the "chato" (small glass of wine) was the star. The business has been passed from generation to generation until today. It's a busy bar and small bar and it is often filled before it has even opened! It is decorated in wood and barrels. Here you will taste fine wines and delicious tapas, such as nuts or sweet anchovies, which won a prize as a best taps. Delicious. In 2006 based on an artistic initiative came the idea to open the old walled solar for use.
Some held gardens and other deposits which had been closed for half a century. Neighbours were encouraged to use these spaces to play football, enjoy the fresh air or drink with friends. The plot that was in front of Bodegas Almau was used as a terrace: the Almau took the barrels whose colour corresponded with the wine: yellow for chardonnay, red for red oak ... They put up parasols and a new space was opened in the city for everyone to enjoy (which others followed): La Terraza de Bodegas Almau. I invite you to visit it, to take a drink, a tapas and then you tell me ... In winter (October to March) there is a tent that blocks out the cold and rain. So there is no excuse to stay home!
