Masterclass: Garnacha grapes, from Aragon to the world

Farmers and Fletchers in the CityLondon, England
Monday, Jan 26, 2026 from 3 pm to 5 pm GMT
Overview

Although Garnacha is one of the world’s most popular grapes today, its origin lies in the region of Aragon in north-eastern Spain.

“The EU Fab 6 - Savour the PDO and PGI Wines and Deli Meats“

Garnacha is enjoying a sustained renaissance in Spain, particularly in the country's Northeast, one of the variety’s core regions. This revival is especially notable in the appellations of Campo de Borja, Cariñena, Calatayud, and Terra Alta, where a new generation of producers has rediscovered Garnacha and its many old vines. They are now crafting complex, well-structured, and balanced wines with great finesse.

This exclusive event will offer you the chance to discover the unique characteristics of Garnacha wines, enjoy expertly crafted pairings with Mortadella Bologna IGP, Salamini Italiani alla Cacciatora DOP to enhance the flavours of each wine, learn about the heritage and craftsmanship behind these prestigious wines and food from expert sommeliers.

The Garnacha Origen Association from Spain as members of the Consortium for the “EU Fab 6: Savor the PDO and PGI Wines and Deli Meats from Europe” campaign, co-financed by the EU, cordially invite you to a Master Class and tasting event featuring a wide selection of Garnacha.

The event will be hosted by Jacopo Armenio Head Sommelier Hutong @ The Shard, alongside producers from the Spanish PDO regions.

Monday 26th of January.

from 15.00 to 17.00.
