Fizz, Salt, Stone & Gold: Uncorking Spain's Four R's Wine Workshop

Join us as we uncork Spain’s famous Four R’s – Rioja, Ribera del Duero, Rueda and Rías Baixas – through six delicious and very different wines. We’ll be enjoying sparkling, white, rosé and red, including a chilled red, as we journey across Northern Spain. We’ll head to Rías Baixas in “Green Spain” to discover what salty Atlantic air can bring to Albariño, before making a detour into Valdeorras, where gold plays a fascinating part in the region’s wine story. Then it’s on to Rueda and its famous “Terrace Tiger”, Verdejo, before heading east to Ribera del Duero to discover why there’s much more to this spectacular region than its expensive reds. And Rioja? We’ll taste two very different styles, including a wine from an extraordinary high-altitude vineyard where the vines literally grow on a blanket of stone. The evening includes a tasting of six wines presented by award-winning wine communicator Diana Thompson, followed by cheese and charcuterie nibbles and another glass of wine.
