Rain sent the planned garden party indoors to the Rossells' house, where twenty members enjoyed a Spanish-themed afternoon of tapas, cold salmon, paella and rare beef courtesy of Sue and Brian and Ruth Wiseman. Wines spanned a Codorníu Cava welcome, a Galician Albariño, a Godello from Monterrei and three Spanish reds including a Ribera del Duero and a Rioja Crianza imported directly by the Rossells from Bodegas Puelles in Haro.
