Big couple of days coming up here in the capital. Tomorrow not one but two top class events: Primitivo Collantes in Taberna Palo Cortado and Eduardo Ojeda of Equipo Navazos and the Estevez Group in Lavinia. Then, on Friday night a festival of Jerez, also at Lavinia.

Hard decisions have to be made and I will only be able to attend one of the three: Eduardo Ojeda in Lavinia. It is a shame because Primitivo Collantes gave anabsolute masterclass in Enoteca Barolo recently and last year’s feria at Lavinia was cracking fun. (There was a similar clash a little while ago – Ramiro Ibañez at Taberna Palo Cortado at the same time as Antonio Barbadillo at Lakasa.)

Anyway, my loss but I hope the rest of you have more luck!
