Introduction to Spain, Tutored Tasting, 2nd March 2016

If you want to learn more about all that Spain has to offer by way of wine, this evening is for you. In this whistlestop tour, we will explore the diverse terroirs of this Mediterranean country, looking at both its indigenous grapes and those wines made in more international styles. We shall explore very traditional wines from well-known regions, as well as tasting wine from some inspiring producers based in up-and-coming areas. The wines will be showcased alongside a delicious selection of cheeses and some creations from our Head Chef. The only thing we can’t promise is sunshine.
