La Bodega Hampton
Caterer in Hampton, VA
In reality, a Bodega is wine shop. Since the 14th Century, bodegas have existed in Espana. A vintner would open a shop in his home for the tasting and sale of his wines. Eventually, many vintners would come together to provide their wines, thus creating the need for the wine merchant. In the 17th Century, these vintners and wine merchants, gathering together, would supply breads, cheeses, fruits and other complimentary items for their clients to sample and purchase from their inventory.
