First Impression
The wine list at Sra. Martinez does what you'd hope from a Spanish-leaning spot in Miami: it leans into Iberian producers without getting precious about it. The selection sits comfortably in that middle zone—not trying to be a wine bar, not phoning it in with the usual suspects. There's enough here to work with.
Selection Deep Dive
The list skews predictably Spanish with a solid showing from Rioja, Ribera del Duero, and Priorat, plus some Albariño and Verdejo for the white wine crowd sweating through Miami humidity. You'll find recognizable producers like Marqués de Cáceres and Condado de Haza, but also some smaller bodegas that show someone on the buying end cares a little. The French and Italian sections feel like afterthoughts—a few safe Burgundies, some Tuscan reds—but that's fine when the Spanish backbone is this strong. What's missing: any real depth in sherry or Cava, which feels like a missed opportunity for a restaurant trading on Spanish credibility.
By the Glass
The glass pour program is functional but not thrilling. You've got your Albariño, a Tempranillo or two, maybe a Garnacha if you're lucky. Rotation seems slow—these bottles stick around for a while. The pours are generous enough and priced reasonably for Miami, but don't expect weekly changes or staff hand-selling the new arrival from Galicia.
Bodegas Muga Rioja Reserva — $58
Classic Rioja that drinks like it costs twice as much—structured, elegant, and food-friendly with real aging potential still in the bottle
Descendientes de J. Palacios Pétalos del Bierzo
Most people skip Bierzo for Rioja, but this Mencía is all wild berry and mountain herbs—lighter, more interesting, and made by one of Spain's most respected winemakers
Any house Cava over $45
Miami markup on Spanish bubbles gets aggressive fast, and you're better off spending that money on a proper Rioja or asking what's available by the glass
Raúl Pérez Ultreia Saint Jacques + Pulpo a la Gallega
Galician octopus demands Galician wine—this Mencía blend has the bright acidity and subtle minerality to cut through olive oil and paprika without overpowering delicate seafood
✔️ The Bottom Line
Sra. Martinez isn't going to blow your mind with rare allocations or sommelier theatrics, but it's a reliable spot for Spanish wines that won't wreck your wallet. Come for the paella, stay for the Rioja, and you'll be fine.
