TONIGHT: Sherry, Mon Cheri! 🥂 // @chef_ramonsimarro's Whole Fried Sea Bass is just one of EIGHT dishes he is pairing with FIVE wines at tonight's ticketed guided tasting dinner. . 🎟: A HANDFUL OF TICKETS ARE STILL UP FOR GRABS (LINK IN BIO). . The evening will start with a glass of sparkling from one of the oldest cava producers in Spain, before exploring 4 award-winning sherries (three of which are 90+ points!) . Guiding the event, Jamie Gil will illustrate the sophistication and nuance of this widely misunderstood wine. Jamie joins us on his visit from Spain’s Bodegas Valdespino; the very first sherry house. Ever. (For real.) . A LIL' ABOUT SHERRY (because whatever you think you know about sherry, you're probably wrong)... 🍇 The unofficial-official drink of fifteenth-and-sixteenth-century explorers and a favourite of Shakespeare, Poe and Dickens, sherry’s story is one of the most remarkable in the history of wine... 🍇 Despite a seriously impressive history, sherry has been misunderstood in North America for decades. Commonly the entire category is considered sweet, even though the majority of it is not. But it’s making a comeback; finding its rightful place onto the lists of some of the worlds most well-renowned wine bars and earning well-deserved recognition from a new generation of sommeliers. 🍇 Indeed, Sherry is *SO MUCH MORE* more than your Grandma’s apéritif. . 📸: @transparentkitchen (check out our beautiful profile on their website!) . . . #madrina #madrinaTO #distilleryrestaurants #distillerydistrict #tapas #tapasbar #spanishtapas #design #restaurantdesign #event #tastingdinner #winetasting #wineevent #torontoevent #bodegasvaldespino #sherry #sherryevent #sherrywine #thesherrytriangle #sherrytriangle @azureau #azureau
