Wine is an integral part
of the Spanish culture. A favorite
Spanish pastime is “el Tapeo”…walking from bar to bar, chatting with friends,
having a glass of wine with a “tapa” and moving on to the next place to try
their “specialty”.
Manolo Hernandez-Martin, owner of Las Arribes imports, will
introduce us to eight wines from six different regions in
Join us on Sunday, April 27, 2008 beginning at 6:00 p.m. on
a “journey of the senses” with Manolo as your guide imparting information about
each wine, its region and the culture that flourishes within. The cost is $ 50.00 per person plus tax and
gratuity. Reservations are recommended.
Until then……….bueno
appetito!
