The Wines of Marco de Jerez
La Salut is serving up a degustation of 12 top-notch drops from this southern region of Spain — paired with 12 dishes from the Cleveland Street venue's kitchen.
Overview
Tucked away in the south-west of Spain, Marco de Jerez is a bustling wine region that fosters some of the world's most exciting winemakers. Traditionally a sherry region, the region has seen a new wave of boundary-pushing winemakers emerge in the past few years.
Sydney's vibrant new Spanish and Catalonian wine bar La Salut is honouring the wave of innovative wines with a night dedicated to Marco de Jerez. The night will consist of 12 tasty Andalusian and Catalonian-inspired dishes from the La Salut kitchen paired with 12 of the best drops from the region.
The La Salut team has enlisted the help of Scott Wasley of local wine importer The Spanish Acquisition to run you through each of the wines you'll be trying throughout the night. The organisation has been importing Spanish and Portuguese wines and spirits since 2001 so you best believe Wasley knows what he's talking about.
Kicking off the night will be Andalusian vermouth paired with paleta iberica and fresh-baked pan de cristal from Fabbrica Pasta Shop. From there the array of wines will include orange palomino, magnums of fino and an amber fortified nightcap just to name a few.
Accompanying these top-notch wines will be dishes like Sydney rock oysters, mussel and guindillas toast and La Salute's fan favourite octopus.
The dinner kicks off at 6.30pm and will set you back $195 which includes all of the evening's drinks and all accompanying food. To reserve your place, book a spot at La Salut's website.
