2. Get set up
Each box comes with anonymised bottles of wine, wine flight paddles to keep track of your glasses, and tasting notes to help you decide which wine you think matches the description.
-
3. Taste and Reveal
Taste each wine and guess which is which. Then talk about Debbie next door, and where you're going on holiday, and how your kid never sleeps - because wine should not be stressful. Lastly, reveal the label by peeling back the covers on the bottle and see who figured it out.
Date Night - Celebrating the woman behind two incredible Spanish white wines.
Meet Katia Álvarez, the woman behind the two exceptional Spanish white wines in this box. As the head winemaker at Martín Códax, one of the most prominent names in Rías Baixas wine, Katia was recognized as one of Spain's top ten female winemakers. Her expertise shines through in both wines featured today - one made from the classic Albariño grape, native to this region, and the other from Godello grapes grown in the heart of Galicia. While she is renowned for her Albariños, Katia's Godello showcases her bold approach and dedication to creating high-quality wine. With the help of our tasting note cards, sample both wines and see if you can differentiate between the grapes.
