Discover Malaga wines with a cinematic pairing! The Regulatory Council of Designations of Origin Malaga, Sierras de Malaga and Pasas de Malaga organize together with the Malaga Film Festival the 2nd Malaga Wines Routeand, of course, the Malaga restaurant Bendito will not miss the party. So write down the dates from March 18 to 27 in the agenda and keep reading to know all the details about VinomaScope, the food and wine event that no wine lover should miss.
It is already traditional for locals and visitors to dedicate March and April to the Malaga Film Festival. However, the winemakers from Malaga are going to work hard to make this cultural event also a gastronomic one. An example of this is that next Friday, March 18, 2022, the 2nd Malaga Wines Route will begin. This event adds the pleasure of good wine to the already usual of a good film.
In this edition, almost fifty restaurants in downtown Malaga will serve a selection of the best DO Malaga and Sierras de Malaga wines to pair unique tapas. We don’t know about you, but it sounds like a great plan to us. And remember, all this will take place during the Malaga Film Festival… The more the merrier!
If you are already a regular at Bendito, you will know that every year, on the occasion of the Malaga Film Festival, we prepare menus and special events. Therefore, in 2022 we thought that the most special thing was to participate in VinomaScope with a Malaga wine that oozes Mediterranean flair on all four sides.
The wine from Bodegas Almijara that you can taste at Bendito is the Jarel. A dry and fruity wine, which comes from the town of Cómpeta: straw-ish colour, citrus aromas and floral notes. You will be surprised by its freshness and aromatic potential. Who said white wines only go with fish? The rules are to be broken! Let’s toast to that. Our chef has designed a tapa that matches this wine to perfection. If you don’t believe it, you’ll have to come and check it out.
With your glass of Jarel Malaga wine, we’ll serve you a glass of Crystal bread, a double-baked pork cheek, mustard and sherry stewed onion. As you can see, this time we move away from cinematic themes to give prominence to the local products: traditional flavours. That toasted bread! A few drops of local oil, a crispy Iberian cheek and a sherry stewed onion with all the flavour of Grandma’s kitchen.
From 18 to 27 March 2022 you can enjoy the VinomaScope at the Bendito restaurant by Premium Group: the perfect pairing of wines and gastronomy. But that is not the end of the surprises that your visit to Bendito can bring.
If you share this experience through your social networks with a photo of yourself tasting the Malaga wines with the hashtag #Vinomascope and tag @vinos_malaga you can participate in a draw for very appetizing prizes. How appetizing? You tell us: a selection of wines and guided tours for two people to Nilva, Quitapenas, La Capuchina Dimobe or Huerto de la Condesa among other wineries in the province. Besides, we would love to know if you have won because of your visit to Bendito… Tag @bendito_gastrobar so we can congratulate you!
