Shop Spanish Wines till You Drop in NYC

New York City has a lot to offer aficionados of wines from Spain. Let us prove it to you - here’s our gastroguide on the best places to pick up your Spanish holiday wine haul..
Sherry-Lehmann, which survived the prohibition era and has been in business since 1934, is our first stop for Spanish wines. It is not named after Spain’s fortified wine, Sherry, but in fact the building’s original location. Nonetheless, the physical store on 505 Park Avenue (or its huge online index) has over 60 Spanish wines - and sherries too - representing 15 of its D.O. regions, and making it well worth a browse!
