Recommended wine: Tempranillo, Albarino, Grenache

Spanish works really well with Tempranillo, Albarino, and Grenache. 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 Vina Herminia Lady Label Herminia Tempranillo. It has 4.6 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 14 dollars.

Vina Herminia Lady Label Herminia Tempranillo

100% Tempranillo aged 4 months in barrel and 4 months in bottle. The label honors Herminia Casas Madorrán, the wife of an early proprietor and the namesake of the winery.Beautiful bright cherry color. Very fresh and fruity, with delicate vanilla nuances. Round and smooth on the palate, with soft pleasant tannin. This wine is carefully matured in cellars for four months.
