Spain is HOT! Wines and Tapas Pairing
Presented by Michael Bryan
Summary:
Wine, cuisine trends, even actors, celebrities, olympians and race-car drivers--we are living in the NEW Age of Spain.
With grapes first cultivated in 4,000 BC, Spain's first foray into winemaking predates most of Europe.
The Roman's called it Hispania, and imported more of its wine during the Empire than was produced in their home of Italy.
Today, Spain has witnessed the emergence of a new generation of master winemakers who have learned to blend tradition and quality with innovation.
Nowhere can one find better wines at such a value than here!
Join us for an in-depth tasting of this diverse wine producer. We'll taste 8 wines and have some authentic tapas such as:
- Basque sheep cheese & quince paste
- Toasted marcona almonds
- Pedro Jimenez sherry poured over Bleu cheese ice cream
- And more!
This is a traditional Perrone used for pouring wine in Rioja.
Along with it is the Pedro Jimenez sherry poured over Bleu Cheese ice cream.
