Recommended wine: Tempranillo, Grenache, Albarino
Tempranillo, Grenache, and Albarino 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. You could try Becker Vineyards Tempranillo.
