Bodegas Bentomiz Winemakers Wine Tasting – 6th October 2026 in Lunya with Clara Verhej

Since we opened in March 2010, our legendary tastings have showcased the very best of Spanish food and drink. This is a very special night with Clara Verhej, the superb winemaker and owner of Bodegas Bentomiz, showcasing their wines from Malaga which appear in virtually every Michelin starred restaurant in Spain. Complemented by Peter’s personal selection of deli favourites, this will be a very special, intimate and informal evening. Tom will be hand carving ham in front of you, Peter will be making deli salads in front of you. It will be something else. We have 6 of the very best wines from Bodegas Bentomiz of Malaga, personally presented by their owner and wine maker Clara Verheij with stunning, matching food – all in the informal surroundings of Lunya’s bar.

This will be a very special night. Bodegas Bentomiz is a boutique winery in Malaga’s hills within sight of the Mediterranean sea. Their 80 to 100 year-old vines flourish in slate soils, benefitting cooling sea breezes, brought back to life by Clara and her husband. With a combination of modern and traditional vinification techniques, they produce a range of fresh and delicate wines. Over 20 Michelin-starred restaurants in Europe serve Bentomiz wines and this night, most of them are in Liverpool.
