Please join celebrated Spanish wine maker, Jose Cantos, as Tradewinds Specialty Imports welcomes him to Washington DC, for an evening of Spanish-wine tasting at L’Enfant café-bar on Thursday September 24th, 6 – 8pm ... one lucky guest will receive 2 VIP tickets to see the Nationals vs. Mets (Value: $600).

As much as we are excited to have him join us in DC to enjoy the sights of the Nation’s capital, he is going to take time off to share his delightful knowledge of some of Spain’s most remarkable gems.

The 5 wines being tasted are all available in Washington DC, and are exclusively distributed by Tradewinds. Each wine is also rated #1 or #2 in their respective class, according to Snooth – the world’s #1 wine recommendation website!

Spain has more vineyard acreage than any other country in the world, and it was certainly no easy task searching for these wines as they made their virgin entry into the US … Luckily, all you have to do is trek across to Adams Morgan.

  • Centum Vitis, the #1 wine of Spain for last year, will be available for pre-order at 25% off its regular SRP of $250. A jar of 23K edible gold flakes, which is meant to be sprinkled on this artful wine, is snuggled in the gift box, and presents a perfect gift for the Holidays! (Pre-orders via cash or check only)
  • Customers will also be eligible for a raffle, to be drawn that evening, for 2 tickets to the all-inclusive Lexus Suite of the Nationals Park* (Value: $600)

L’Enfant café-bar, as is name suggests, is a slice of Paris, tucked away in a cozy section of Adams Morgan. Its tranquil garden patio will provide the perfect backdrop to this evening of Spanish wine exploration.
