On Saturday, September 15th at 7pm, have dinner with a Spaniard! Actually, several of them… Taste every single vintage of The Spaniard ever produced! That would be 2002, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, and if we can get Mark (the Winemäker Düde) to agree to it, 2009! We’re not promising anything specific, but we will have a very limited number of some past vintages available for sale at the event… The dinner features lamb and beef slow roasted overnight in our BBQ pit, and paired with delicious paella from Marco Paella, along with other yummy side dishes – and more Spaniard! AND: Live music! By The Snarky Cats! The Twisted Few price per person – for you and any number of guests – is only $49 for food, wine, music, and fun! (Regular price $59. Why not join the Twisted Few?) Seating at this event is first come, first served. Please arrive early and together to ensure you all get to sit together. However, please do not arrive in your altogether.
