Event Description

Albarino is native to Spain and is the grape behind the famous white wines of Rias Baixas in Galicia. Albarino wines are also made in wine regions as geographically diverse as New Zealand, California, England, South Africa and Australia.

The best Albarino wines have an aromatic quality and an intensity.  It's all about balance. Wine drinkers are quite rightly very much in love with Albarino right now. It is a versatile grape capable of greatness and able to give a lot of pleasure.

Temnpranillo is native to Spain too and is found Rioja, Ribera del Duero, Valdepenas, Toro, Catalunya and many more regions. It is also grown in places as diverse as California and Australia. 

The best Tempranillo wines share a complex range of aromas from red fruits to darker fruits depending on the climate plus structure and good ageing potential.  

Come and find out more about these two fascinating grape varieties as we taste three Albarino wines and three Tempranillo wines from around the world.

This relaxed evening tasting includes six wines, a digital presentation, tasting notes and some cheese and crackers.
