DONOSTIA-SAN SEBASTIÁN - PARTE VIEJA - GANDARIAS JATETXEA
GANDARIAS JATETXEA
We returned to Casa Gandarias in October 2021 for our regular fill of pintxo de solomillo and red wine!
We had a bottle of El Lagar de Isilla Paraje Peñalobos Tinta del Pais 2018 DOC Ribera del Duero.
This was a good match with the solomillo.
