Famed for its fantastic Albariños with a modern and relaxed style, the Galician company Adega e Viñedos Paco & Lola presents a twist with its young red wine, Paco by Paco & Lola. For this production, Grenache and Tempranillo grapes were selected from 25-year-old vineyards in the Valdizarbe subzone of D.O. Navarra, planted at an altitude of 450 meters on clay and rocky soils. Each variety was vinified separately to preserve its unique characteristics. The result is a red wine that is as fresh, rich, and elegant as the company’s renowned Albariños, making it the perfect companion for rice dishes, fatty fish, red meat, and oriental cuisine.
