We cordially invite you to join us for a special wine dinner featuring the illustrious wines of Bodega Elias Mora from the Toro wine region in Spain on Monday, April 24th at 6:00 p.m.


During this dinner, Bodega Elias Mora export manager Catalina Madra and Grapes of Spain CEO Aurelio Cabestrero will walk diners through each wine pairing and share their knowledge and passion about these opulent wines that are modern, yet deeply rooted and devoted to tradition.


Chefs David Cardona and David Sierra in collaboration with Sommelier Gustavo Iniesta created a decadent tasting menu where each dish pairs perfectly with the featured Bodegas Elias Mora wine. Each course will be paired with a different Elias Mora selection to truly showcase the beauty and flavors of these intense, powerful and rich red wines made with 100 percent Tinta de Toro grape.


A little about the winery: The philosophy of the Bodegas Elias Mora winery revolves around combining a respect for tradition and modern technology. Owner and winemaker Victoria Benavides focuses exclusively on Tinta de Toro grape, the native clone of Tempranillo, which has been grown locally, with no exposure to phylloxera, for over 2000 years. It is ideally suited for this terrain and boasts hundreds of years of viniculture.


About Grapes of Spain: Grapes of Spain, Inc. was established in November 2001, with its first container landing in the United States in spring 2002, representing 8 producers. The company imports wines exclusively from Spain and currently represents 36 producers with a portfolio of 90+ wines from all corners of Spain. All of the wines are new to the U.S. market and are from family winegrowers and that focus only on high quality and limited production.




We look forward to tasting, savoring and celebrating these world renowned wines with you on April 24th.
