About Ricardo · 01 / 06

Ricardo Martínez,ambassadorof Andalusian wine

Ricardo Martínez is a Granada-born gastronomy communicator, sommelier and specialist in Andalusian wine and cuisine. More than 20 years on the floor, in the winery and in training have taught me that wine isn't served, it is told.

I combine my outreach work with content creation and collaborations with wineries, restaurants and institutions. My obsession: altitude wines and the soul of the people who make them. Come and see for yourself.

Five waysto discoverwine with me

Tailor-made. No mass groups. No imposed scripts. Each experience adapts to the palate, the pace and the reason of those who entrust me with their time.

The experience · 03 / 06

A tasting with Ricardois a journeyin five acts

Each experience is designed like a script: the arrival, the space, the tasting, the pairing and the conversation that lingers after. Swipe to see how it unfolds.

  • Act 011 / 5

    The arrival

    I meet you where you want me to: hotel, villa, wine bar or winery. No stress, no transfers. Your time starts when we open the first bottle.

  • Act 022 / 5

    The space

    Hotel Gar Anat, Pilar del Toro or your own living room. Every tasting begins by choosing the place well — light, table, silence, landscape.

  • Act 033 / 5

    The tasting

    Five premium labels, not one more. I tell each wine as a chapter: the vine, the hand, the year, the reason for the aroma.

  • Act 044 / 5

    The pairing

    Artisan cheeses, acorn-fed Iberian charcuterie, selected preserves. Food doesn't accompany the wine — it talks back to it.

  • Act 055 / 5

    The conversation

    What remains at the end is the after-dinner talk: the questions, the discoveries, and a list of wines we'll order together for your cellar.

Voices

What those who have uncorked with me say

  • I'm a guide and I brought a group of Australians and North Americans to a tasting with Ricardo. It was a beautiful experience. Ricardo passed on to us the essence of every wine, but also the individual way of perceiving them. Far from being the typical tasting — these are local wines chosen with very personal criteria where many years of experience and love for what he does shine through. A journey through Spain through the palate. I highly recommend it.

You can tell that Ricardo puts great care into creating special events. I'm always looking forward to the next one.
