VIVA ESPAÑA

|
Sincere congrats to Spain on their hard-won World Cup victory - no better way to mark this occasion than with a few delish Spanish vinos...Pair them with increasingly popular tapas-style foods (think finger foods) available in many restaurants - and maybe a slice of Dutch cheese - a nod to their valiant effort!


1.  Albariño - (Pronounced AL-BA-REE-NEEO) - a white grape from Spain, producing deliciously refreshing and and full-bodied wines.  This producer  makes some of the best examples of this grape from Spain.  Lemon-garlic shrimp or grilled tuna on the side please....

2.  Tempranillo (Pronounced TEM-PRA-NEEO) - a red grape widely grown in Spain, making juicy, mid-weight reds superb with grilled meats.  Try with lamb skewers or pork souvlaki.
