SUMMARY:COME WINE WITH ME - EXPLORING SPAIN & PORTUGAL
DESCRIPTION:COME WINE WITH ME – EXPLORING SPAIN & PORTUGAL \nThe wines of Spain and Portugal have increasingly grabbed the attention of the wine world in recent years. \nThere is certainly a lot more to Portugal than Port! From the home of port in the Douro Valley\, where there are some of the best value reds Europe has to offer\, to the intriguing white wines of the cool north-west\, and of course\, we mustn’t forget Ribetajo\, Alentejo and the Algarve where wines are often interesting and complex. \nFor many years the red wine of Rioja has ruled the roost of the Spanish wine scene\, but the wines of Ribera del Duero are certainly nipping at its neighbour’s heals with some rich and meaty wines – and let’s not forget the Spanish white wines\, such as fragrant Alberiño from Galicia with its peachy soft juiciness. \nLet the showdown commence! \nTIMES: 6-8pm \nCOST: £38.50 including fizz on arrival and 6 samples of wine plus some snacks. Places are only confirmed once paid in full and are non-refundable or transferable. \n\n\n\nDINNER: You may like to continue your evening and enjoy dinner in our restaurant following the event. You can book a table here. \nDIETARY REQUIREMENTS: Please let us know if you have any dietary requirements or conditions we should know about. \nBLACKFRIARS EVENTS & COURSES SELL OUT QUICKLY SO BOOK NOW! \n\nPlease note; if it shows no online availability\, the event is sold out.
