Albarino

Classic

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 Quince Pasta Manchego

Galician white with salt-and-citrus lift — the seafood-tapas pairing every time.

Fortified · Full · Sweet

California fortified wines — port-style and sherry-style bottlings (legally called something else now), often outstanding values from old-vine producers.

Why it works with Manchego With Quince Pasta

American Fortified's concentrated style brings depth to Manchego With Quince Pasta; pour in small glasses.

Cava

Classic

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 Quince Pasta Manchego

Spain's answer to Champagne — the everyday sparkler for tapas and seafood.

Fortified · Full · Sweet

Portuguese island wine that gets better the more it's mistreated — heated, aged, oxidized into nutty, caramel-tinged immortality. Drink Sercial dry as an aperitif; Bual or Malmsey with dessert.

Madeira's concentrated style brings depth to Manchego With Quince Pasta; pour in small glasses.

Rioja

Classic

Red · Medium · Dry

Tempranillo-based blend from northern Spain, traditionally oak-aged into something quietly profound. Cherry, dill, vanilla, leather; great with lamb, paella, and aged Manchego.

Why it works with Quince Pasta Manchego

Aged Rioja is the all-purpose Spanish red — tannin from oak, brightness from acid.

Fortified · Full · Sweet

Spanish table wine, broadly — Tempranillo, Garnacha, or a regional blend. Sun-soaked, food-friendly, increasingly remarkable for the price.

Why it works with Manchego With Quince Pasta

Spanish Sherry's concentrated style brings depth to Manchego With Quince Pasta; pour in small glasses.

Red · Medium · Dry

Spain's signature red — bright cherry, dusty earth, and a touch of vanilla from American oak. Soft enough to drink young; structured enough to age beautifully in the right cellar.

Why it works with Quince Pasta Manchego

Rioja's classic Tempranillo — cedar, leather, dark cherry — built for Spanish ham, lamb, and stewed dishes.

Verdejo

Classic

White · Light · Dry

Spanish white with herbal-grassy lift and bright citrus. The lighter, brighter cousin of Sauvignon Blanc — perfect with tapas and lighter Iberian cooking.

Why it works with Quince Pasta Manchego

Rueda's herbal-bright white refreshes lighter Spanish dishes and aperitivo plates.
