Wine Selection:

  • Cune Monopole

    • Fresh floral and fruity aroma with notes of green apple, pear and light citrus. In the mouth it surprises its liveliness since its entrance is smooth at the same time that its step is marked by the typical acidity of the wine.

    Cune Ribero del Douro

    • 100% Tempranillo. Aromas of red fruits and liquorice very typical of the Tempranillo variety, to this we add the aromas coming from the aging in barrel, soft pastry.

Saketini

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 ounces gin or vodka

  • 1/2 ounce sake

  • Garnish: olive or cucumber slice

Instructions

  • Pour sake and vodka or gin over ice.

  • Strain into a chilled glass

  • Garnish with a sliced cucumber. Cut a round slice or go with a very thin strip cut lengthwise down the cucumber. The first option can float on top of the drink and the second is beautiful when folded inside the glass like a ribbon.
