Spanish Wine Education Update

As you all know, I recently entered to receive a scholarship offered by The Wine Academy of Spain and CataVino. The "winners" were announced this evening, and all who entered were lucky enough to get a spot in a class!

See the full list of winners at CataVino.


This is going to be an excellent experience - a full 3-day course doing nothing but tasting and learning about the wines of Spain. I'll definitely record my thoughts leading up to and during the course, and to celebrate I think I'll do a bonus post each week and try a new Spanish wine!

So, I'd like to thank the Academy.... and Gabrielle & Ryan Opaz of Catavino, and Steve DeLong for urging me to enter, and a wonderful friend, Rebekah Scott, who really inspired me to learn to love the Campo.

Cheers!
