Wine Dinner: Itsasmendi

  • The Wine Whisperer 11535 West Broad Street Henrico, VA, 23233 United States (map)

So you wanna meet a winemaker? We’re thrilled (Jenna is practically jumping out of her skin thrilled) to host acclaimed Basque producer Itsasmendi at Wine Whisperer for a paired pincho dinner in our Whisper Room.

We’ll be sitting you down with a member of the Itsasmendi team to enjoy six of their incredible wines alongside 10-12 tapas inspired dishes that reflect the quality and tradition of the Basque and Northern Spain.

Why you should come:

1 - You get to rub elbows with an amazing producer and learn from the best in the business.
2 - You love racy, lively white, pink, and red wines made from obscure grapes grown only (mostly) in the Basque.
3 - You think plates of food (sometimes on skewers) that basically don’t stop arriving at the table are exciting.

Limited to 12 people. $85 per person.
