Wine lovers will find Berria the perfect destination to fully enjoy the essence of this exclusive wine bar. Located in the emblematic Plaza de la Independencia and with privileged views of the Puerta de Alcalá and El Retiro Park, this impressive space has become one of Madrid’s wine temples.
As soon as we cross its threshold, Berria dazzles us with its elegant and sophisticated interior design, the work of its founder Gabriela Alcorta. A space where every corner has been conceived to highlight the most important aspect of this ambitious project: wine. With a wine cellar of more than three thousand references and a selection of more than one hundred wines that can be ordered by the glass, which is constantly rotating, Berria’s offer is a true ode to diversity and oenological quality.
Behind this proposal is a great team of young experts who guarantee impeccable service and a personalised experience so that we can fully enjoy each evening. Moments that become an unforgettable sensory journey through the world’s most exceptional wines. From seductive sparkling and aromatic whites to intense reds, because at Berria, every glass tells a story.
To complement the experience, Berria offers a carefully selected gastronomic proposal based on top quality products that has been designed by Juanjo López of La Tasquita de Enfrente. From appetising starters that are ideal for sharing, to sensational meats and formidable fish, without forgetting its tempting homemade desserts, among which its irresistible apple tart stands out.
Our evening at Berria began with a comforting shot of stew broth as an aperitif, which greeted us in the best possible way, before we delved into their appetising gastronomic offer. After savouring this small delicacy that exudes flavour and savoir-faire, we tried some exquisite Joselito Iberian ham croquettes that are a real spectacle. Creamy, delicate and addictive, they led us to an impressive ensaladilla, crowned with a delicious tuna from Santoña, which is perfect for sharing. We continued with one of their star dishes, the eye-catching brioche of Iberian jowl and caviar, which is a true gastronomic gem. A small mouthful of pleasure that led to the now famous Berria eggs, which they prepare with red shrimp from Huelva and paprika from La Vera. A magnificent explosion of flavour in the mouth, which shared the limelight with an irresistible morsel of cod in tempura with confit peppers that we enjoyed from start to finish, before succumbing to the charms of their original sirloin nugget prepared with Caesar sauce, piparra and Normandy butter. A true spectacle for the palate, which culminated in the sweet moment of dessert. We opted for the apple tart with meringue milk ice cream, which turned out to be a real hit. A masterful recipe that will delight even the sweetest palates.
Finally, we cannot fail to mention that Berria has a spectacular terrace, which is perfect to enjoy at any time of the year. A space where luxury and comfort are combined with an exceptional selection of wines, creating a unique atmosphere in the heart of Madrid. Lovers of good wine… Berria awaits you!
