Join us for a guided Spanish wine experience exploring wines of Rioja, one of Spain’s most historic and prestigious wine regions. During this tasting, we will focus on the signature grape of the region, Tempranillo, sampling four wines from a single producer showing the full spectrum of Rioja’s aging classifications. Guests will experience how ageing in barrel and bottle shapes the wine’s character, comparing styles from youthful to complex, mature wines that highlight Rioja’s tradition.

We will begin the evening with a welcome glass of Cava!
