Red Blend
Tonight’s a big night: Your boss and her husband are stopping by for dinner. You’ve heard (many times) how they’re big Spanish wine drinkers, so pull out all the stops with this tempranillo blend. The vino’s dense floral flavors have a surprisingly vibrant minerality. Plus, it’s from one of the greatest wine estates in Castille—you can casually mention that its ancient vines supply grapes to many first-rate wineries in the country.
