Event Description

Escape to the rolling vineyards of Spain's most celebrated wine region for an evening of mouth-watering combinations!

Whether you’re a seasoned connoisseur or just love a great glass of red with a perfectly paired bite, join us for an exclusive, curated tasting journey through the bold, complex, and timeless flavors of Rioja.

The Experience
We’re pouring six exceptional Rioja wines, perfectly transitioned from crisp whites and vibrant rosados to the deep, oak-aged Reservas and Gran Reservas that put the region on the map. Every pour is expertly matched with premium artisanal cheeses designed to make the tasting notes sing.

What’s on the Menu?
The Crisp & The Creamy: Vibrant Rioja Blanco paired with a delicate, tangy goat’s cheese.

The Classic Crianza: A fruit-forward, approachable red matched with a rich, nutty Manchego.

The Bold Reserva: A deeply complex, oak-aged masterpiece paired with a robust, crystal-aged Gouda.

...and two more surprise pairings that will redefine your palate!

Meet Your Expert Tutor: Victoria Aldwinckle

This masterclass is led by Anna Midcalf (DipWSET, SWS, AWE).  Havign recently returned from a trip to Rioja, Anna brings deep insider knowledge, rich history, and an engaging, interactive teaching style to the table.
