Wine Cellar
Behind a kitchen whose base is the product and the most expressive creations, a wine cellar with more than 800 national and international references could not be missing.
Avant-garde creations that are accompanied by the suggestions of the highly awarded Maria José Huertas, whose baton accompanies an experience that goes beyond sight, smell and taste.
When preparing the wine list, the team of sommeliers performs an analysis of the circumstances and backgrounds that surround it, since it is made around certain common generalities. You always have to think of a showy format, but fundamentally practical, thus avoiding the lack of wines.
The number of references is approximately 800 at present and they are changing, rotating, maintaining or becoming vertical, in such a way that clients always find news under the commitment of constant updating.
The representation of Spanish wines is more or less than 50%. The Menu is made up of Generous, Sparkling, White, Rosé, Red and Sweet Wines.
María José has been working with Paco for more than 20 years and they have achieved a very special connection that is reflected both in the selection of wines and in the exclusive pairings that perfectly accompany the menu.
