Tapas & Vinos 1
Tapa: Tortilla y Piquillo Pepper con Alioli pintxo
Wines: U Mes U Larus | D.O Cava
Price of the tapa: £4
'Cava is one of the ultimate food friendly wines, its acidity balances anu fatty flavours line the allioli, this wine gives a lovely buttery note that will work with tortilla and then as it is a pinot noir base it has a delicate note of fruit that will keep you coming back for another sip.' - Adam Beckey
Tapas & Vinos 2
Tapa: Cantabrian Anchovy con whipped fresh goat's cheese pintxo
Wine: Illusionat Rosado | D.O. Valencia
Price of the tapa: £4
'Rosé isn't just for the summer, and this one, which is a blend of Tempranillo and Marselan, is a lovely expression of fruit and body; the acidity works well with the cheese and salty anchovy while the fruit almost acts like a jam to the dish.' - Adam Beckey
Tapas & Vinos 3
Tapa: Tortilita de camarones con squid ink Alioli
Wine: Pazo Pegullal | D.O. Rías Baixas
Price of the tapa: £8
'This is all about the fish and Albarino combination. The acidity of Albarino works so perfectly with the fried prawn frita; it cuts through that fattiness and highlights the prawn flavour. In Galicia, fish and Albarino are a match made in heaven so we have taken that and just altered it to a dish famed in the south of Spain.' - Adam Beckey
Tapas & Vinos 4
Tapa: Chistora con padron skewer con mojo verde
Wine: Hondarabi Beltza | D.O. Bizkaiko Txakolina
Price of the tapa: £12
'This is all about food friends, Chistorra is a long thin chorizo like sausage found in the north of Spain, we work with Arbizu who make a basque one. Beltza is a red wine from the Basque region so its about the meaty, paprika-spiced sausage and then the lovely fresh dark fruits that come from the red. This is also a chance to showcase a rare native grape from the region.' - Adam Beckey
