The fermentation revolution
The fermentation revolution, explained by one of the most knowledgeable Spaniards on the subject.
Robert Ruiz of Lov Ferments will bring to the stage the counterpoint to wine of other fermented beverages that can also have their place in the world of gastronomy and pairing. In a tasting format, he will explain and question the history and importance of wine, beer and distillates, as well as his creative system for creating fermented beverages. We will show where we have come from and where we are going in the global framework of food and wine pairing," says Ruiz.
