Los Vinos de España
(The Wines of Spain)
If my memories are
correct, my first encounter with Spanish wine was a bottle of Yago Sangria,
when it still had the plastic net, in the back seat of a car on the way to the
Syria Mosque to hear Stanley Turrentine play.
I was 17. Things have changed since then.

We will taste six wines from Spain, the world
leader in exporting wine. Here is a
chance to sample some of the most exciting wines on the market, and have an
expert tell us about them. If you feel
the urge, Spanish attire is welcomed!
