An evening where we fight Global Poverty by tasting exquisite wines from Rioja, Spain. Join us for a Wine Tasting Fundraiser Evening.
About this Event

What if an evening of wine tasting could do more than delight your senses? What if it could help fight global poverty?


Join us at Rioja for a unique wine tasting fundraiser that brings the warmth, culture, and rich flavours of Spain right to Glasgow. This is more than just a tasting, it’s an experience that blends culture, conversation, and impact.


Your tasting package includes:


🍷 Three carefully selected Spanish wines

✨A guided introduction to each wine—its region, story, and cultural significance

🌍 The opportunity to contribute directly to the fight against global poverty


As you sip, you’ll explore how wine is deeply connected to Spanish culture, its history, communities, and way of life, making this a chance to learn, connect, and travel through taste without leaving the city. Also, a great opportunity to meet new people and have a great time.


To support Rioja’s generous partnership with us, we encourage guests to purchase additional food and drinks directly from the restaurant throughout the evening, perfect for pairing with your wines and enhancing the experience.


More than just wine… 🍇

To make the evening even more engaging, we’re planning a few interactive touches:


🎲 Blind tasting challenge – can you guess the notes?

🧀 Suggested pairing moments with Rioja’s menu

💬 Stories behind the wines – connecting flavour to culture and community

🤌Take your first (or next) step towards becoming a wine connoisseur

👋A chance to meet a new people


Whether you’re a wine enthusiast or just curious to try something new, this is a relaxed, welcoming space to meet people, learn something new, and be part of a meaningful cause.

The fundraiser wine tasting event is in support of The Borgen Project, an organisation working at the political level to make global poverty and international development central to the foreign policy priorities of both the United States and the United Kingdom.

Sip, savour, and support, because small moments can create global change.
