BYOB or TTPB Networking at IWINETC

BYOB (or TTPB – Traer Tu Propia Botella)  is back by popular demand at IWINETC 2019. A small group of IWINETC-goers will meet at El Portalón for a unique evening of wine sharing, conversation, and tasting delicious Basque tapas – picoteo!. Here’s the idea … delegates bring a bottle of wine that is special to them – whether because it’s from their country, they just absolutely love it (and want others to know it), or they are just curious about it themselves. Upon arrival bottles will be opened and shared! El Portalón will provide delegates with a beautiful room and lay on a selection of local tapas to accompany their wines. It’s a great networking event and conjures up some great wine stories!

About the venue: El Portalón, named after its large entrance door is a 15th century building which was built as an Inn for merchants. It used to have a ramp to access the basement or the stable, where merchants stored their goods and carriages to protect them from bad weather and thieves.Since then and throughout its history the building has had several purposes.The building was restored in 1957 and nowadays houses one of the city’s best-known restaurants.
