For the second year running, the emblematic hotel will play host to a guided tasting event next Tuesday, the 16th of August. The event will feature 6 of the best wines from the Condado de Huelva wine route, which will be paired with products from the Jabugo Route
The aim of the event, getting underway at 7.30 pm, is to showcase the province’s winemaking and gastronomic wealth to Spanish and foreign tourists visiting Huelva
Marbella, 12 August 2016. For the second year running, the Fuerte El Rompido hotel in Huelva wanted to form a partnership with a Promotional Campaign to showcase the Condado de Huelva Wine Route and the Jabugo Route, to tourists visiting the province during this summer. Both Product Associations are running this project in conjunction with the Local Government and Tourist Office, in partnership with the Huelva Hotels Association.
As part of this activity, as well as running information stands, a free guided tasting activity will be held on Tuesday the 16th of August, at 7.30 pm, in one of the rooms at the complex. Those attending will have the chance to sample 6 of the best wines from the region, which will be paired with Jabugo Hams to give a full experience of the best gastronomy and winemaking that Huelva has to offer.
A video will be screened during the event, showing the longstanding winemaking tradition of this rich province, which is undergoing something of a renaissance at the hand of different local, family-run wineries. Although white wines are the region’s strong suit, there are also unique local products such as vermouth and orange wine, to tickle the taste buds of connoisseurs and enthusiasts alike.
