Sommelier Cinema: VICKY CRISTINA BARCELONA




Sommelier Cinema:
VICKY CRISTINA BARCELONA
Wednesday 1/26, 7:00 @Ritz

Advance tickets available here

Sommelier Cinema is a new series that pairs fine wine with the films that make us want to drink them. We are inviting guest sommeliers to come to the theatre, be inspired by a film, and come up with a dream menu of wines that will sweep you through the film. To kick off the series, we are excited to present VICKY CRISTINA BARCELONA, the idyllic trip through Spain that celebrates love, passion, and the wines of Catalonia. We'll be joined by guest sommelier Claudia Alarcón.

Claudia has chosen four wines from the Catalan region, the location VICKY CRISTINA BARCELONA romanticizes so well. Catalonia also happens to be one of the greatest wine-producing regions in the world, and the wines she's chosen are exquisite.

The menu is below, and you can read more about it here:

Raventós i Blanc L’Hereu Reserva Brut 2007

Clos del Pinell Blanco 2009

Mas Igneus - Barranc dels Closos Blanc 2009

Clos Figueras “Serras del Priorat” 2008

All audience members will get the four wines and a short introduction from Claudia about the history/characteristics of the wines, what to look and taste for, and how to become closer to the wine snob you want to be. Then we'll watch the fabulous film and sip passionately.
