What it pairs with

  • Roast lamb chops
    Approachable fruit and spice pair well with simply cooked Castilian lamb.
  • Roast pork loin
    The wine's medium body and fruit complement herb-seasoned pork.
  • Manchego cheese
    Hard sheep's milk cheese brings out the wine's fruit and vanilla character.
