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. One wine you could try is Sangre de Toro Tempranillo. It has 4.5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 9 dollars.
