Introducing Alba’s Staff Release 'Sangria Aperitif'. 

In Spain everything revolves around food and drink. It’s at the heart of who we are. Saturday with family means vermouth and appetisers on a bar terrace. Sunday with friends calls for sangria and paella in the backyard. Fair season with old mates is all about rebujito and tapas wherever there is room to order and eat.

With my staff release I want to bring my favourite Spanish tradition to Australia: sharing life’s simple joys with the people I love, over great food and good drinks. My homeland has taught me that you don’t need special occasions or grand plans to come together.

It’s about cherishing everyday moments, embracing the people you care for, raising a glass and toasting to many more memories to come. - Alba
