The Wines of Spain
This 2 hour course will introduce you to some of the wonderful wines that Spain has to offer. We will explore the wines of northern Spain including the superb aromatic dry
whites from Galicia and the classic reds of Rioja and Ribero del Duero. We will also explore the wines from Cataluña which include stunning Garnacha based reds from Priorat DOC, some of the most sought after reds in Spain.
This course would not be complete without a look at Sherry, one of the most misunderstood wines in the world. We will be taking a look at the complex and fascinating production process of these wonderful wines and, of course, tasting the one of the many delcious Sherries available.
Spanish wines, including Sherry, are best tasted with food so the 8 wines we will taste will be accompanied by some tasty Tapas.
