Yesterday, on my way north from Zaragoza, I stopped here for a glass of wine with a view.
Where am I? Name the town and the vinoteca.

Are you in Elciego Spain drinking a Marquis de Riscal from the rioja wine region. I hope you are staying at the Hotel Marques de Riscal

You are drinkinking that Marquis de Riscal on the terrace of the Wine Bar Vinoteca in the Hotel Marques de Riscal. They just closed the hotel recently for structural problems which I assume they corrected.But don't sit under any beams, Wendy!

Congrat's Scory, it does appear that Wendy is in Elciego, Spain, drinking wine at the Marqu?s de Riscal.
That's one interesting-looking building!

VG Scory - where have you been? I need some new eyes to read that wine label : 0)
That is some hotel - wow!

Isn't it LoriB? It really sticks out in that landscape. Old church, old village, then BAM! crazy-cool wine bar! Hehe.

BTW, Wendy, did I guess your room correctly? That post still won't load.

Hi Tracker,
Too bad that second page still won't load! Yes, you nailed it -- cabin 658 -- and I was absolutely amazed. I think I wrote that forget the CIA, you should join Interpol.

Congrats, Scory! That's precisely where I was. But no way could I splurge on a room there! All I could afford was the glass of wine.
Glad you've joined in,
Wendy

Ooo! Interpol. That could possibly be more fun than the CIA. I think I might have found my calling! Well, if my career as an artist doesn't work out and/or I have a midlife crises in about ten or fifteen years, I'll keep that in mind. Hehe... :D
