I have not been to Spain. Yes, it’s very sad. But I have sampled some Spanish wines in my time, and tasty is a good way to describe them. So, if you’re looking for something to do tonight, head to Dali in One Arts Plaza. Chef Joel Harloff (ahem) is making a four-course meal and pairing it with Spanish wine from Hidalgo Imports. President Antonio Hidalgo will be there, and he’s probably pretty cool just based on his name. He’ll have blends of Garnacha, Syrah, Merlot, Tempranillo, and more. Jump for the entire release.
