Enjoy the food and wines of Logroño (La Rioja, Spain) as the Wine Expo in Santa Monica is transformed into CALLE LAUREL, named “the ultimate gastronomic corner of the capital of La Rioja” in 2012.

Cost:  $39/each includes tapas and 12 to 15 wines.

DETAILS: Upon check-in, guests will receive a welcome glass of sangria de Rioja and a “Trail of the Elephants” tasting sheet, listing the “bar” and the wines at that bar. We will stamp each bar as you taste and when you have tasted all of the wines, you will be entered to win a Rioja-themed prize.

There will be 4 or 5 taperias (tapas bars) stations set up in the Wine Expo wine bar. Each station will feature various “pintxos”- small bites of different delicacies on spikes (toothpicks) and 3-4 wines, for a total of 12-15 wines.
