The latest generation of Spanish winemakers are pioneering new techniques, bringing back  indigenous varieties and reviving ancient aging methods. Join us for a special five-course lunch and paired tasting as we criss-cross the new landscape of Spanish wines, guided by our friend Simon Vitelleschi Cook from Moreno Wines.

Experience


12.30pm - 2.30pm


Spanish wines are experiencing a new wave. Winemakers are eschewing traditional rules imposed by regulatory boards and are instead looking to forgotten indigenous varieties, producing wines that reflect a sense of place and local terroir. It is an exciting time to be making (and drinking!) Spanish wines.

 

Join us for a five-course lunch with paired wines and a tutored tasting from the ever-charming Simon Vitelleschi-Cook from Moreno Wines in London. Simon has selected a series of beautiful wines from the Moreno portfolio to illustrate this new wave and movement in Spanish wines.


Lunch

Giselle has created a five-course lunch that will showcase Simon's wines. Each wine will be introduced by Simon, who will talk to us about the producers, regions and techniques hidden in each glass. All of the wines will be available for purchase on the day too.

Simon Vitelleschi-Cook

Simon's passion for wine started at an early age at the dinner table heavily influenced by his Italian heritage. He's been in the business advising about wine for over 12 years now and regularly visits Spain and the continent to help source wines that stand out from the crowd and satisfy his foodie cravings. He can be found testing his tennis skills out on the courts in Brighton, firing up the BBQ on a sunny day or trying to win the mind game with his cat


A new era in Spain - Extra-ordinary wines from Moreno Wines

Moreno Wines has been searching out the finest Spanish wines for over 50 years. It's in our DNA. As a small dynamic team, we’re looking to find the ‘new’ in the old world. That means we’re full of energy and enthusiasm, restless to improve, eyes enthusiastically fixed on the horizon. We think our wines are killer. We’re not afraid to say what we think. Sometimes that’s unspoken truths that land well with our audience, other times it will be a Moreno point of view that may occasionally challenge the status quo. (www.morenowines.co.uk)


This wine pairing lunch promises to be intoxicating, fascinating and a delight to the senses - don't miss it.
