A Very Special Wine From A Very Special Man – Cándido Pazos López

PORTONES LA RIOJA

Architect, sculptor, painter, writer and wine maker Cándido Pazos is a true Renaissance Man in our time.  His unique talent and creative expression knows no bounds and he is constantly in pursuit of sharing his passions and talents with others.  Always an inspiration wether you are enjoying a good conversation with Cándido with one of his latest creations Portones, which means gates, a impressively delicious and full of flavor “vino tinto” from La Rioja,  admiring one of his incredible sculptures or possibly reading from his most recent book Códice Calíxtíno en los Camínos a Santíago you will be inspired by his incredible enthusiasm for life, passion for the art of creating, and exploring all aspects of the Camino de Santiago de Compostela.  If you are making your way on the Camino Francés make sure to include a little extra time for a tour in La Rioja – a land rich with culture, tradition and fantastic Wines In The Camino – El Camino Del Vino!
