Those feisty Spaniards may have reached the final of the won the World Cup, sparking scenes of delirium in Madrid, Valencia and Seville (and even Barcelona and Bilbao), but that’s nothing compared to la pasión roja about to be unleashed at Vino on Friday night!
Like a red rag to a bull, our eyes light up when we hear “Sangria”. On a July evening there’s nothing better than this fruity, food-friendly, quenching summer drink that really packs a punch!
Join us on Friday, July 16 from 5:30pm, as we unveil the Vino take on this Spanish classic. Approaches to Sangria (literally “bloodletting” in castellano) can vary wildly between regions, towns, even within families and households (Rioja and Coke, anyone?), so it’s rare to enjoy the same Sangria experience twice. Recipes vary depending on the local wine, types of fruit, the inclusion of ice and/or soda plus other ingredients such as juice or liqueur.
Given Vino’s burgeoning stock of lighter international wines, tasty sparklers and eyebrow-raising spirits, this free tasting promises to be an evening of wild Iberian experimentation, the results of which not even Paul the Octopus will be able to predict…
