The experience
What this event can do
Explore Spain through a private wine flight selected for your group. A host can connect the bottles with their regions, grapes, and place at the table, while guests compare favorites. Choose a broad introduction, a focused red-wine session, or a tasting built around small plates; the exact wines and food are agreed in the proposal.
What the proposal should include
- A defined Spanish wine theme
- A proposed flight with current bottle availability
- Serving order and host notes
- Tapas or other food options scoped explicitly
- Dietary and ingredient review when food is requested
- Wine, catering, rentals, and staffing responsibilities
Planning notes
Decide whether the wine or the food leads the evening. If a caterer is already booked, share the dishes before requesting the flight.
Spanish wine is a broad subject. A focused event does not need to include every famous region, sparkling wine, and Sherry in the same session.
WineTasting.NYC plans events directly and with hosting partners. Your proposal identifies the event operator, contracting party, scope, and availability before you book.
Updated
Give the evening a clear route
An introduction might contrast a fresh white, a rosado, and different red styles. A deeper session could stay with one region or compare a grape across places. The purpose is to make the differences memorable, not to race through a map.
Tell us about the bottles your group already likes. That helps the host decide where to offer a familiar starting point and where to introduce something unexpected.
Tapas need their own service plan
Small plates can create an easy social rhythm, but they still need a serving schedule, ingredient list, and someone responsible for replenishment. A wine tasting quote does not automatically include catering.
| Event style | Food approach | Planning detail |
|---|---|---|
| Seated flight | A few agreed bites | Serve the same pairing to everyone together |
| Social tapas evening | Shared or passed small plates | Allow space for food and used plates |
| Private dinner | A full menu | Match pours to kitchen timing |
What to send for a tailored Spanish tasting
Start with date, guest count, venue, and budget. Add whether guests prefer whites, reds, sparkling wines, or an open exploration. If the occasion is tied to a trip, anniversary, or favorite region, that story can help shape the event.
Confirm the final flight, food quantities, host time, glassware, setup, and cleanup before booking. For a reception, also confirm whether explanations happen at stations or during short shared moments.
Questions
What planners ask first.
Can we request Rioja or Ribera del Duero?
Yes. Name the region in the brief so the host can discuss a focused flight and current availability.
Are tapas included?
Only when listed in the proposal. Tell us whether you need catering, will supply food, or already have a chef.
Can beginners enjoy this theme?
Yes. A small number of clear contrasts and approachable explanations can make a regional theme accessible to first-time tasters.
