La Cata del Vino of Córdoba

At the end of April the famous“Cata del Vino Montilla-Moriles” is celebrated. Located in the Bulfighting Arena, more than 30 stands of wineries and restaurants will offer to the visitors their best wine and traditional food. A must during your Erasmus in Córdoba!

Flamenquines, croquetas de rabo de toro, salmorejo or paella are some of the typical “tapas” that you may taste during “la Cata”. You will try the best wine of the region, a fine white wine with intense scent and taste. For sure will turn out to be very different from all the wines you have tried until now.

“La Cata” is not open during the whole day, so you’ll have to decide whether to go by day or night (maybe both). The atmosphere is amazing at any time, but probably there will not be so many people during the weekdays at night. During the day it is open from 13:30 to 17:30 and the entrance is free. The evening shift starts at 21:00 and ends at 1:00 in the morning and you have to buy a ticket. It costs 12€, in which 5 glasses of wine are included, and you also get a “catavinos” (wine tasting glass). You may buy your tickets here.

With this event Córdoba inaugurates its popular “mayo cordobés”, which will be followed by “las Cruces”, “los Patios” and the “Feria”… The perfect festivities to enjoy your Erasmus in Córdoba as never before 🙂
