For one night, Kitty Dare’s already top-tier wine selection is dedicated to rare and standout selections from Spain. In partnership with VinoTeca and B&L Brands, guests will explore exclusive pours from family-run estates, alongside Spanish-style gin and tonics, handcrafted sangria, and other signature sips. And in true Spanish fashion, the night won’t just be about what’s on the plate. Live music will set the tone, and guests are encouraged to embrace tradition—when the wine is flowing, the napkins hit the floor.
