Moraira – Colin Harkness on Wine

CAVA DINNER MORAIRA NOVEMBER

We were lucky enough to be part of the recent Cava tasting and dinner at the Swiss Hotel Moraira which was hosted by Colin Harkness. Wine and Cava expert extraordinaire.

Colin as always did an excellent job. His explanation of each Cava of which there were 5, was very informative. A different one was served with every course. Colin had chosen each Cava to complement the food which they did. I enjoyed them all especially the first one as it was lighter than the others and could therefore be drunk for a longer period of time which suits me as Cava is my preferred drink.

The Swiss Hotel and the ambience was wonderful. The food was truly amazing. On this occasion it was subsidised by the Cava federation which was very generous of them. I made an effort to say thank you to the President who was there for this truly wonderful evening.

Without Colin and his expertise the evening would not have happened so a big thank you to him for a truly memorable night

CAVA DINNER NOV 2014

A note to congratulate you on last night – an excellent evening with a first class menu, a delightful venue and your most interesting presentations on Cava.

Taught me a lot about Cava – I had no idea about the times it spends ‘ageing’ and the fact that 95% of it comes from Catalunya.

Hope that that if they do eventually separate from Spain, they will not put the ‘export’ prices up!

Love to you both.

CAVA DINNER NOV 2014

Hi Colin,

It was a lovely evening …one of the best, if not the best, we’ve had with you. The cavas, the food, the ambiance…delightful .. The only problem was we couldn’t see you because we were behind a pillar.. perhaps you preferred it that way! None of us really thought about going to Swiss Hotel for dinner, but we will now… Thanks for a super evening

CAVA DINNER, SWISS HOTEL, MORAIRA

I’m delighted to announce that the Consejo Regulador (Ruling Council) of the DO Cava has asked me to present a very special tasting on Friday November 28th. It will be held in the elegant restaurant of the up-market Hotel Swiss, Moraira.

There will be a four-course dinner and each course will be paired with a different style of Cava: Brut; Rosado; Reserva; and Gran Reserva! It’s a very rare opportunity to enjoy the fact that, whilst Cava is of course wonderful for celebrations and aperitifs, it can also be perfectly paired with the different dishes of a whole dinner!

And here’s the best bit – the above: the 4-course dinner at Hotel Swiss and the Cava with each course, will cost you the amazingly economic price of just 25€ per person!!

I’ve seen the menu, I’ve tasted the cava – 25€ is a steal!
