Casa Ventura Imports &

Wines from Spain

 

This Saturday the WINE BANK welcomes Laura Stiff from Casa Ventura Imports. Casa Ventura’s”mission” is to find premium Spanish wines and bring them to the United States and to stores like ours. They are highly regarded specialists at finding the best of fine Spanish wines.

Historically, Spain is in its finest moment with regard to wine-making. This is because Spain has developed modern wine-making concepts, vineyard techniques, and facilities, while preserving the essence of their traditional regions and grapes. They believe in the soils of Spain, an old vine land that has been producing wine for more than 2,500 years. For the Romans, Hispania was extremely precious. In fact, some of the wines currently produced in Spain were already valuable in Roman times.

Taste these world class wines with affordable prices. See you Saturday.
