We Return to Spain
We decided to return to Spain virtually in our next tasting to taste new wines from Spain and also discuss our recent Stay Luxurious Wine Journey to Ribera del Duero and Rioja. Our annual journey, designed to explore famous wine regions of Spain for their incredible wines the tour, also highlights Spain's world class gastronomy, history, culture & architecture.
We cna not pack our entire 6 day / 5 night journey through Spain into our next 90 minutes virtual wine tasting, but we shall showcase the regions, the wines, ans share some stories of discovery too. Details for the 2025 journey, slated for September will be available soon, so stay tuned. Until then we shall drink the wines of Spain on December 27th @ 5pm ET.
Our Selected Wines of Spain
I selected our wines for this evening to highlight a few wines we tasted in Spain from the regions we visited and also expanded the regions to have a unique twist on a "bubbly." On our tastings, via zoom, I will share why each wine was selected and of course provide the details about the vintage, region, style and what to pair it with for our virtual tasting.

Details on the Virtual Tasting
People always ask me, how can you do a virtual tasting? Well, each sign up is responsible to getting the wines listed, I provide a website to make it easier but sometimes you may want to shop locally or you can be outside the delivery area for selected wines. In those cases you can also get a similar wine as remember we discuss the region, the vintage, the grapes, and more.
We all sign up on a zoom window and I provide a presentation on all the wines as we taste and discuss them together. It truly works well and it is only 90 minutes long.
What to Expect on December 27th?
You will learn not just about the wines selected, but also more about Spain and we shall also highlight items from our Spanish Wine Journey beyond the wine itself.
