TONGHAM TAPAS FIESTA

Tickets are now on sale for our Saturday February 12th Spanish wine tasting dinner in Tongham Village Hall. Seven superb Spanish wines and twelve tapas dishes to taste should make for an excellent evening and represents tremendous value at just £22.50 per head. We should also be able to raise a few hundred pounds to help the continuing renovations of the village hall – hopefully you will notice quite a few changes since our gala champagne dinner last year.

In some parts of Spain they have Tapas festivals or fiesta during February as part of the lead up to Lent. This may be the first time we have had a Tapas Fiesta in Tongham.

As this is fiesta time, the emphasis this time will be on fun rather than formal so Spanish Tapas is ideal as it is little dishes made for sharing. Rather than black tie this time, we want some colour so wear something red and yellow – the colours of the Spanish flag. There will a bottle of wine for the best dressed person following this theme.

As usual we will include a large educational element so that you will leave the evening with the history of tapas and an introduction to the main Spanish wine regions. Wines will include Rioja, Priorat and Albarino and we will also be reintroducing you to Sherry.

We always sell out, so book early to avoid disappointment. As my mobile phone is broken at present, ring 01252 783447 or 07983 154295 for tickets. We need cheque or cash within one week of booking.

Don’t miss out on the Tongham Tapas Fiesta. Ring today!

Last October's Champagne Tasting Dinner in Tongham Village Hall

Our next Tongham Village Hall Wine tasting dinner is going to be on Saturday February 12th, 2011.  The theme is going to be the wines of Spain and Tapas style food.  Wines will include everthing from Albarino (one of Spain's best whites from Galicia) to Priorat (the most happening red wine region in Spain) and we'll be throwing in some special Sherries as well.  I'm afraid you can't book yet but do mark the date in your diary.   Why not subscribe to this blog if you want to make sure you know when we are taking bookings - all of our recent wine tasting dinners have been sell-outs.
