Recommended wine: Tempranillo, Albarino, Grenache

Tempranillo, Albarino, and Grenache are great choices for Spanish. When pairing wine with Spanish dishes, why not follow the rule 'what grows together goes together'? We recommend albariño for white wine and garnachan and tempranillo for red. The Bodegas Volver La Mancha Single Vineyard Tempranillo with a 4 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 12 dollars per bottle.
