Marqués de Riscal

Torrea 1, Elciego, 01340, Spain
€€€€ · Modern Cuisine
Located within the eponymous hotel-winery (recognised as the best vineyard in Europe in 2021) designed by the famous architect Frank O. Gehry and overflowing with imagination and creativity. Beneath the spectacular curved roof of pink, gold and silver titanium that represent the red of the wine, the golden hue of the wire mesh decorating Marqués de Riscal’s bottles, and the gold colour of their capsules, discover innovative cuisine overseen by award-winning chef Francis Paniego, with a constant nod to tradition, memories and the superb seasonal ingredients of the Rioja and Álava provinces. Everything is centred around two tasting menus (Torrea and Chirel) with different numbers of courses, both of which share the same Basque-inspired appetisers and fried dishes (such as the famous croquettes, the recipe for which Francis acquired from his mother). One dish that stood out for us on both menus was the delicious lamb with its characteristic “spiral” that we were already familiar with from the El Portal de Echaurren restaurant.
