Event Description
The Meseta - (Castilla y Leon , Castilla La Mancha, Madrid, Extremadura)
The heart of old Spain, home of Don Quixote. This tasting will of course include the popular spicy reds from Ribera del Duero and refreshing Verdejo from Rueda. We will also taste lesser known wines such as old vine Garnacha from the mountains outside of Madrid and re-imagined wines from Spain’s most planted white grape variety.
There is a quiet revolution in Spain. A new generation of winemaker is working inhospitable slopes and nurturing abandoned vineyards in hidden corners of rural Spain. Their purpose? To bring life to the diversity of Spanish terroirs. Often working with little known, almost forgotten native grape varieties they are bringing new life to old vines. Ecologically aware, these young winemakers are committed to a vision of low intervention wine making.
In this course we look beyond the mainstream to bring you rewarding new discoveries.
This evening tasting is part of our Spanish Adventure 3 week course.
