The first floor is where the 2 Michelin Star Restaurant, ̈El Molino de Urdániz ̈ is located. Theyserve a tasting menu focused on sustainability and local producers. So is the wine list. It has more than 400 references, mostly of Spanish sustainable producers, but with an interesting selection of foreign wines. Jaione, one of the owners, is the maitre and sommelier in charge of the caller.
The restaurant offers wines by the glass, which are not fixed, since they open bottles following the guest ́s preference and menu offered. The star is the paring, with wines and other beverages like sakes, kombuchas, vermouths, beers, ciders, etc, combining harmoniously every single step of the menu.
