The Wine Line-Up
-
White Rioja
- Fresh, mineral, and vibrant.
- Bright citrus, white peach, green apple, and delicate floral aromatics create a refreshing opening to the evening. Crisp acidity and subtle texture make it an ideal companion for lighter cigar profiles like the Claro.
-
Rosé Rioja
- Elegant and gastronomic.
- Wild strawberry, red berries, soft herbs, and refreshing acidity deliver balance and versatility. The rosé bridges beautifully between charcuterie elements and medium-bodied cigar wrappers like the Colorado.
-
Red Rioja
- The classic expression.
- Red and dark fruits layered with vanilla, spice, cedar, and soft oak influence. Structured yet smooth, the red Rioja pairs exceptionally with the Oscuro and Maduro expressions, enhancing cocoa, earth, and roasted coffee notes within the cigars.
-
Pairing Notes
- This evening explores the dialogue between tannin, smoke, spice, sweetness, and oak.
- The brighter freshness of white Rioja cuts through creamy smoke and cleanses the palate beautifully between draws.
- Rosé Rioja introduces fruit-driven balance that softens pepper and earth while highlighting aromatic complexity in medium-bodied wrappers.
- Red Rioja naturally complements darker tobacco profiles — amplifying cocoa, leather, espresso, and wood while creating a longer, warmer finish.
- A pairing experience designed not around overpowering intensity, but around progression, balance, and texture.
-
Accompaniment
- A curated charcuterie board will accompany the evening, featuring carefully selected cold cuts, cheeses, breadsticks, nuts, olives, and Mediterranean flavors designed to complement both wine and cigar without overwhelming either.
- Simple. Refined. Shared.
- The kind of food meant to stay on the table all evening while glasses refill and conversations deepen.
- * Limited seating available.
- Reserve early and discover one of Piraeus’ newest destinations for wine and cigar culture.
