Monthly World Tour Dinner Series at Vinifera Wine Bar & Bistro - First Stop: Spain July 11, 2009

On Saturday, June 11th, Vinifera Wine Bar & Bistro will kick off “Vinifera’s World Tour”, a monthly dinner series featuring food, wine and entertainment from various regions of the world. The first stop on the tour is the Spanish country side, conveniently located just a few miles from home.

Executive Chef Bo has created an authentic Spanish menu for the evening, including paella from a 3 ft. wide pan on the outdoor terrace and a tapas menu featuring dishes like Fennel dusted fried mussels with dill dipping sauce and Potatoes and Chorizo cooked in tomato broth. Prices of tapas range from $6-$9.

To complement the dishes, General Manager/Sommelier Jason Meringolo has hand-picked selections of Spain’s world-class wines. Sangria with fresh fruit will be served and wine flights will be available for $15. Master guitarist Dani Corteza will provide diners with authentic flamenco-style entertainment.

“Vinifera’s World Tour” is a monthly dinner series that will include regions like Germany, Greece, Asia Pacific and Latin America. Guests who attend the world tour dinners will receive a travel-sized world map and a stamp for each dinner they attend. Once patrons have attended three world tour dinners and collected the respective stamps, they will be entered into a drawing for the chance to win an overnight stay at The Westin Reston Heights and breakfast for two at Vinifera.
