Following the opening of our first floor lounge in May, we will soon be offering a selection of pintxos, the Basque form of tapas.  Many believe, as we do, that the best chefs in Spain come from that region, providing the best finger foods to enjoy with wines hailing from Basque country.

Great Northern Wine has a special affinity with Northern Spain.  We stock many wines from the region, and have recently been sourcing new wines from exciting producers that we expect to be offering later this year.  And of course, we have the continuing relationship with our old friend, Pedro Azcunaga, and are currently offering his wonderful 2005 Pradoayala - the perfect wine to wash down your pintxos with!

Between now and May, we continue to offer a selection of olives and lap snacks to soak up the wine - all at £2 per serving.
