Taste five bottlings from Bodegas y Viñedos Tábula, Olivares de Duero, from their basic under $20 Demana 5 to their stunning Clave de Tabula Reserva which sells for well over $150 per precious bottle. This estate has 22 hectares of mostly Tempranillo rooted in deep limestone soil at the southern edge of the Ribera del Duero Zona, just north of Madrid. The wines are hand harvested then meticulously sorted in two stages: first rejecting bad bunches then rigorously sorting BERRY by BERRY for only the best fruit.

$15 per person plus tax and gratuity
