RIOJA MONTH AT EL PIRATA

October is Rioja Month, and El Pirata is marking it properly.

Three ways to explore one of Spain’s great wine regions — a special tasting evening, a sharing menu built around the wines, and seven Riojas poured by the glass throughout the month.

Wine Tasting Evening — 14 October

On the evening of 14 October, we are hosting a standing reception and wine tasting with Morenos and C&D Wines. Seven Riojas, small bites, and the people behind the bottles — from 6pm to 8.30pm.

£57 per person. Includes all wines and food throughout the evening.

  • A winemaker in a cellar drawing red wine from a wooden oak barrel into a glass using a wine thief.
  • A large group of people clinking glasses of red wine together in a celebratory toast under modern lighting.

    THE RIOJA ROUTE PAIRING MENU

    Our sharing menu is built around four glasses of Rioja.

    Running throughout October, our sharing menu is built around four glasses of Rioja. Everything arrives for the whole table – jamón ibérico, fresh seafood, lamb chops and confit duck rice, finishing with crema catalana, coffee and a Pacharán. Each course paired with a wine from the list.

    £77 per person. Minimum two guests. Available alongside the full à la carte.

    • Red wine being poured from a bottle into a row of wine glasses, with the central glass.

      SEVEN RIOJAS BY THE GLASS

      Our wine list expands to include seven Riojas.

      In October, our wine list expands to include seven Riojas by the glass – whites, a rosé and reds from crianza through to Muga Reserva. A chance to explore the region one glass at a time, without committing to a bottle.

      Ask your server, or order alongside the pairing menu. Glasses from £9.50.

      • A group of people toasting with glasses of red wine at a table next to a rustic wooden wine rack.
