The first of our series of intimate dining affairs, where
small groups of guests are invited to indulge in interesting cuisine
accompanied by specially selected wines from various sources. Here, we

Spanish delights matched with our selection of new-generation wines from
Spain. These wines were CODICE, a seductive wine selected from the vast estates of Dominio Eguren, aromatic LIBALIS, a Muscat a Petit Grains-based wine, Grenache from the semi-dessert region of Borja produced the BORSAO Seleccion and finally, ETIM Seleccion from DO Montsant, a brooding red wine of old vine Garnacha and young Cabernet Sauvignon.
