What it pairs with

  • Grilled lamb chops
    Light and fresh fruit pairs easily with simply grilled Castilian lamb.
  • Chorizo and bread
    Spiced sausage and rustic bread with the wine's fresh red fruit is a classic Spanish combination.
  • Young Manchego
    Fresh sheep's milk cheese and the wine's cherry notes are a casual, easy match.
