Wine Courses Barcelona Wine Courses Barcelona was founded by Sharon in 2015, with the aim of taking the snobbishness out of wine appreciation and to help others make the leap into the wine industry. WCB provides the world-renowned Wine and Spirits Education Trust (WSET) qualifications, from Levels 1 to 3. As the international standard in wine and spirits education, these are invaluable assets for professionals and informative, comprehensive courses for novice wine lovers. To date, WCB has trained over 270 students from 48 nationalities and enjoys exceptional pass rates. WCB also provides training for individuals and businesses, including bespoke training for hotels, restaurants, bars, yacht crew, and wineries, as well as corporate entertainment programs and team building events. Sharon became a Certified Sherry Educator in November 2019 and her next goal is to spread the love for this under-appreciated beverage throughout Barcelona! The WCB team grew in 2019 when Sharon was joined by owner of Salut Wine Studio, Melissa Leighty, who teaches Level 1 courses; and Simone Velluti. Both Melissa and Simone are proud WCB graduates. Their maxim is: “grab a glass, get involved!” Why don’t you? About Meagan BellovinMeagan arrived in Barcelona in 2019, having left behind a full life of family, friends, and career in Austin, Texas.

An authentic New York style bagel in Barcelona is a prized treasure. Fortunately, Boston Bagels delivers them right to your door. While bagel-shaped breads or croissants can be found around town, a true, chewy-on-the-inside-crispy-on-the-outside bagel reminiscent of the ones that Jewish immigrants from Poland introduced in New York City is a rarity in Barcelona. Boston Bagels comes close, offering up a wide selection of bagels in traditional flavors, including sesame, poppy seed, plain, and onion. Of course, this being Barcelona, lox and a schmear of cream cheese (aka “Philadelphia” as the Catalans call it) are readily available at the nearest grocery. Place your orders via WhatsApp by Thursday afternoon to have them delivered to your door every other Saturday morning — just in time for a lazy weekend breakfast. Boston Bagels is a virtual store.   Check out other bakeries in Barcelona.
