Discover Galicia: Spain’s Green Northwest
We are delighted to invite you to a masterclass on Galicia, where the wines tell the story of Spain’s verdant, misty northwest—its ancient pilgrimage routes, dramatic landscapes, and rich legacy.
Led by Nika Shevela DipWSET, Spanish Wine Scholar instructor, this two-hour class will spotlight Galicia’s most iconic wine styles and terroirs, beginning with crisp Albariño and Treixadura from coastal vineyards, before heading inland to Valdeorras for refined Godello, and ending in Ribeira Sacra with its steep slopes and remarkable reds born of heroic viticulture.
This is a rare chance to taste and learn about a region that’s both rooted in tradition and redefining the future of Spanish wine.
We look forward to welcoming you!
