Seminar: Meet the winemaker Raúl Perez and His Stunning Spanish Wines
February 9, 2019 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
| Join Winemaker Raúl Pérez and Andrew Mulligan of Michael Skurnik wines for a tour through the cutting edge of the Spainish wine scene!
Raúl makes wine in several different regions of Spain’s northwest, but he makes his home (and some of his finest wines) in Bierzo. The wines in the Ultreia series follow the Burgundy model: a pair of entry-level “village” wines from multiple sites and then a collection of single-vineyard expressions. The majority of these vineyards are located in the village of Valtuille de Abajo, where the Pérez family has lived and worked for generations. Also included under the Bodegas y Viñedos Raúl Pérez label are some wines from outside of Bierzo in the Ribeira Sacra D.O. We will also taste Raúl’s Sketch Albariño, undoubtedly his most famous bottling. Contrary to popular belief and, indeed, some reports in major media outlets, this wine is not aged underwater. It is, however, one of the finest white wines produced in Spain, and demand for it always outpaces supply. Saturday February 9th from 2:00pm – 3:00pm $45 per person plus tax Call 908.658.9292 for Reservations |
