Barcelona is ahead by 3 proven places.
See the Barcelona cardHow we count. A place is proven when there’s evidence on file that it pours natural wine: its own site says so, its wine list names natural producers, named press, or natural importers list it. Bars, restaurants, cafés and bottle shops all count. Of the 18 proven records we can list here, 8 wine bars and bars, 5 bottle shops and grocers, 4 restaurants, 1 cafés. “Just carry some” means our only proof is one importer’s stockist list.
