Two-Hour Spanish Wine Tasting Event For Groups in Madrid

This wine tasting class allows private groups of
any kind (business, tour groups, corporate events, etc.) to sample some quality
Spanish wines with expert guidance and tuition from a professional
wine instructor.
There is also the option to try some tasty tapas after the tasting.

This event is held in a specially conditioned tasting
classroom, in the centre of Madrid and close to the Metro stations of Colón and
Alonso Martínez, and is intended for private groups with a maximum of 20
participants (for larger groups, please
consult us).

The class starts with a short multimedia presentation of approximately 30 minutes on the world of Spanish wines. The experienced
wine instructor
uses her thorough knowledge of wine to give a comprehensive introduction to
the excellent wines of Spain in a fun, informative and interactive manner.
This overview includes interesting and entertaining images of the different
Spanish wine-producing regions.

Participants are provided with a printed hand-out including general
information on Spanish wines and a list of the wines to be tasted during the
event.

6 different Spanish wines are served during the class. The normal combination
is for 4 reds and 2 whites to be offered, but groups may of course suggest their
own combinations, and even specific wines if desired. These wines are good
quality regional wines from good young (joven) wines to top “reservas”, allowing
participants to appreciate the full range from those with an excellent
value-quality relationship to some of the highest quality wines in Spain.

The wine-producing regions covered in this “Introduction to Spanish Wines”
include the better known areas of Rioja and Ribera del Duero, but also the new
rising stars such as Jumilla, La Mancha, Priorat, Somontano, Bierzo, and the fashionable Vinos
de la Tierra.

THE TAPAS OPTION

For those wishing to prolong their enjoyment of Spanish specialities, there is
the option of trying some tasty tapas in the adjoining tapas lounge (photos
above). During approximately 1 hour, you will have the chance to sample 5 or 6
delicious tapas, chosen from a range of typical specialities, together with some
light snacks.

This option is available for groups of up to 10 persons and
provides the perfect ending to this wonderful occasion for wining & dining the
Spanish way! (Should you require this option, please click the Reservation
