JOSÉ FÉLIX (CHEFE) PANIEGO
VITICULTORS - THE WINES MENU OF EL PORTAL
Being in La Rioja, it is not an easy task to design a wine list from a place like El Portal de Echaurren. The person in charge must have a great personality, simplicity and, above all, knowledge.
Three characteristics that joins José Félix (Chefe) Paniego. His wine list for El Portal, where he also runs the Sala, is more than a menu itself. It is a book of sincere reflections that speak of wines, through those who elaborate them. Of them he describes his way of understanding the vineyard, his way of working, his life, in short.
Viticultores recounts the experiences of consolidated names and many other discoveries that will write the future of the DOCa Rioja and also travels through other areas of the rest of Spain and Europe.
