Description
Our offering is a gastronomic experience guided by the wine experts at Borgia, in which each dish is paired with a carefully selected wine, inviting you to discover how a wine’s acidity, texture, structure, origin, and production methods can transform your perception of a dish.
Drawing inspiration from the cultural legacy of the Borgia family and the tradition of Renaissance banquets, we present a contemporary journey that blends Mediterranean ingredients, Valencian cuisine, and compelling stories from the world of wine.
GASTRONOMIC JOURNEY
I. FRESHNESS AND SALINITY
LOURO · RAFAEL PALACIOS
Godello · Valdeorras
Gillardeau oyster No. 2.
Eggplant, béarnaise sauce, and Mahón cheese.
Croaker (corvina), tsuyu pearls, cucumber, and dashi.
We will explore how the acidity, minerality, and texture of an exceptional white wine can complement seafood and creamy preparations.
II. BALANCE AND CONTRASTS
L’ANTAGONIQUE · LES COUSINS MARC & ADRIÀ
Priorat · Blanc de Noirs
Mini brioche with bluefin tuna tartare.
Valencian coca (flatbread) with Xesc Reina sobrasada, Mahón cheese, and Montgó honey.
Coca with roasted vegetables and artichoke.
A unique wine that allows us to explore the creation of white wines from red grape varieties, and to discover how a single glass can harmonize with flavors ranging from seafood and vegetables to rich, fatty, and subtly sweet notes.
III. STRUCTURE AND INTENSITY
SELECCIÓN DE LA FAMILIA · LUIS CAÑAS
Tempranillo · Rioja Alavesa
Angus rib, cured foie gras, fig demi-glace, and cauliflower.
We will explore the role of tannins, structure, and aging in achieving balance between a red wine and a dish of great gastronomic intensity.
We will conclude the journey by returning to our own land, discovering the balance between sweetness, intensity, and aromas in one of the most evocative pairings of the entire experience.
