Beth Willard will lead a tasting of innovative, outstanding Spanish wines. These wines are made from different grape varieties from various regions across Spain. What do they have in common? They are all using different materials for fermentation and ageing breaking from a reliance on oak. These are modern and exciting styles of wines all employing techniques originating in the past.

What does the future hold for Spanish wine? What are the challenges to overcome and the opportunities to capitalise on, given the current trends in the market place and shifts in global demand? In this session, Peter will use a carefully chosen selection of wines from across Spain, as well as insights from the UK market, to explore and illustrate what the future might look like for Spanish wine.

Alicante is one of the historical areas in wine production, with a great archaeological, varietal and historical heritage. Among its great milestones is the creation of barrel formats, known by the name of Alicante barrels, or monoveros, thanks to a specific guild that lived in the city itself for centuries. Today nothing remains of that, but the work of winemakers in country houses and old facilities has allowed this heritage to be recovered. Especially thanks to the aging of Fondillón, this mythical wine that is kept silently for decades in the old cellars of the region.

Outstanding tasting and round table that presents three renowned winemakers, all united by a unique way of making some of their wines. Recovery of old vats from past centuries, reused in the present as unique and surprising winemaking vessels. Stone places where winemaking has remained anchored in time forever.
