Martine Cafe – This evening at 6:30 p.m. join Martine in welcoming Scott Slobin, CWS of The Winebow Group – Mundo Vino for ‘an evening in Spain’. For a paltry fee of just $18 enjoy an exclusive taste of three wines paired with bites by Chef Tom Grant. The three featured wineries are as follows:

Juve y Camps Cava: Family-owned winery located in San Sadurní d’Anoia, a small town in the northeastern Penedès region. Reserva de la Familia is the flagship cuvée of the estate winery. In the beginning days of their winemaking, the Juvé y Camps family had their own reserve of this Cava, and it is still the only Brut Nature that they make. Made from the free run juice of traditional varieties Macabeo, Xarel.lo and Parellada and a touch of Chardonnay, this is the Cava of choice of Spain’s royal family.

Finca Montepodroso Verdejo: Finca Montepedroso was founded in 2010 by La Familia Martínez Bujanda, a family-owned collection of wineries that dates back to 1889. This wine is made from 100% estate-grown Verdejo fermented at low temperatures in stainless steel tanks to preserve freshness. Finca Montepedroso is at once a fresh and intense wine, showcasing the true varietal character of the Verdejo grape.

Marques de Grinon Caliza – These wines are sourced from the prized Dominio de Valdepusa vineyard in Castilla-La Mancha. “Caliza” means limestone in Spanish, used in naming this wine so as to pay homage to the unique soil profile at this estate. The moderate layer of clay topsoil over rocky limestone leads to elegantly structured wines. Caliza is a blend of Syrah and Petit Verdot which are fermented in stainless steel followed by one year in new and second passage French oak.
