Marqués de Riscal and Frank Gehry

Maybe you did not noticed yet, but also wine makers (certainly the big ones) tend to have great building projects. This is a project from the Bodegas Herederos del Marqués de Riscal, located at Rioja, Spain.

This project houses the company’s offices, wine museum, tasting rooms, conference rooms and a luxury hotel with 14 distinct rooms. The architect on duty is the incredible Frank Gehry, known from the Guggenheim Museum at Bilbao. Oh boy, did I wish I had the money to order a house from him :-).

Have a nice wine in a nice building today!
