Events

The November edition of La Vid’s monthly First Friday tasting.

An evening given over to Spanish and Portuguese wine worth taking seriously: bottles chosen for quality rather than novelty, poured to taste rather than described across a counter.

What is open changes month to month. What does not change is the standard — these are wines Victor stands behind, and the kind that make more sense with a glass in hand than from a shelf talker.

Accoutrements are available à la carte, so you can build a plate alongside the glasses or leave it at the wine.

$35 per person.

La Vid’s next signature event is given over to one region: Ribera del Duero, the high plateau along the Duero river where Tempranillo makes some of Spain’s most serious, structured reds.

An evening of exquisite wines from Ribera del Duero, poured by three vendors, with food to go alongside.

Tickets are $95 per person: online through Eventbrite, by phone at (813) 450-1280, or in person at La Vid.
