White · Light · Dry
Galicia's gift to summer — citrus, peach, salt air, and acid like a knife. Made for shellfish, paella, and any dish that involves the sea.
Why it works with Corn Tamales
Spanish coastal white with the salt and citrus that ceviche, shrimp tacos call for.
Sparkling · Light · Dry
Spain's traditional-method sparkling, made in Catalunya. Crisper and chalkier than Prosecco; remarkable value next to Champagne. Pair with jamón, tortilla, and grilled vegetables.
Why it works with Corn Tamales
Bubbles cool the heat and refresh the palate between bites.
Rosé · Light · Dry
Provence's gift to summer — dry, pale, faintly strawberry-and-citrus, with low alcohol and crisp acid. Made to drink cold, with food, in the shade.
Why it works with Corn Tamales
Dry rosé bridges Mexican heat and lime acidity with refreshment to spare.
White · Light · Dry
Citrus, cut grass, and a wire of acid. Marlborough makes it loudest; Sancerre makes it most refined. Either way, it cuts cleanly through goat cheese, herbs, and anything with shellfish.
Why it works with Corn Tamales
Crisp citrus white mirrors lime, cilantro, and tomatillo — the salsa verde register.
