Spains Great Match

It was all about Wine and Food design at Spain's Great Match last week.



Located inside the Frank Gehry building on the west side it really couldn't be a more perfect location.



There were some great eateries in attendance, my favorite of which was My Moon restaurant from Brooklyn.  They showcased an array of tapas like juicy Watermelon Gazpacho with fresh goat cheese, Iberico ham and basil oil alongside Fried Plantains and with anchovy and bell pepper.


The Txoriburger, a spicy chorizo and beef slider loaded with blue cheese and crispy yucca....


...and a creamy Duck Croquette with membrillo marmalade and orange aioli.


But the main event here was the wine of which there was plenty to enjoy like the Gastiago a big, silky Garnacha with a dark cherry finish...


......the spicy elegant Lealtanza made from 100% Tempranillo then aged in French Oak...


...and finally an Albarino I actually enjoyed!  I swear I didn't put the sunglasses there :)


It was a fantastic event...can I book my trip to Barcelona now or what??
