SUMMARY:'Let's taste and discuss Navarra Authenticity with Sarah Jane Evans MW'
DESCRIPTION:You’re invited to taste an exclusive selection of both and debate with Spanish specialist Sarah Jane which are to be preferred. Are local varieties always best? Should Tempranillo prevail? Or Garnacha? What is wrong with growing Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon in Spain? \nDO Navarra is making available samples of 10 wines for 30 UK members. The discussion\, though\, will be relevant to members everywhere\, who are warmly invited to join in. \nAs with our previous ‘Let’s taste…’ seminars there will be a minimal charge of £10 to each member wishing to take part in the tasting and to receive samples (£15 to non-members) to cover our administrative costs. Members who do not receive the samples are very welcome to join the seminar\, in which case there is no charge.
