Skrewcap Summer 2012 Wine Tasting
Iberia: The Way Forward is Looking Back
$10 for 18 Reasons members; $15 for the general public

18 Reasons is happy to join forces with Skrewcap, Jose Pastor Selections and Vinos Unico for this exceptional tasting of wines from Spain and Portugal.

Pastor's eclectic and unparalleled portfolio of biodynamic and organically made wines and Moya's selection of superb, inexpensive wines from Portugal and Spain give them unique standing. They are leading the way by representing Iberian producers who use old farming and vinification techniques, and indigenous, and in some cases grapes that have been brought back from the brink of extinction.

Many of you have already met Luis so here is a little introduction to Jose Pastor, courtesy of Eric Asimov of the NY Times.

"He is a passionate proponent of distinctive regional styles and traditional methods, who avoids wines that have been subjected to the blurring influence of internationalization...Mr. Pastor...has an impressive portfolio from all over Spain."

All wines are shown at this tasting will be chosen by Pamela Busch, the Grand Poobah behind Skrewcap.
