This is a much needed update to my 2010 post on good wine places in Madrid. Madrid is still a challenging wine place....getting better, but challenging. Great tapas and easy-drinking quaffable wines to wash them down abound, but if you are visiting and really want to explore some of the better wines it's still not easy. For wine lovers visiting Madrid there are a few vital stops I would recommend....the top two being Casa Lucas and the Mercado de San Miguel.
