Spanish Wonder

Its Me Again,

How many of you have heard of Tempranillo? If you at some point in your life drank a wine from Spain you more than likely have had this grape, at least as part of a blend. It is to Spain like Sangiovese is to Italy... a lot of it is grown and produced! As it should be it is a very easy to drink wine. Today's pick is the Marco Real, Tempranillo 2007 from the Navarra Region in Spain. At $7.99 fo this thing, can you say bargain or what?

Bodegas (Which translates to Chateau) Marco Real was founded in 1988 in the heart of Navarra, in Olite, a thousand-year-old city with a long-standing wine producing tradition. They have slowly been spending more money and investing in their properties and continue to produce nice wines.

Don't pass this one up! Great for burgers on the grill for that Monday night football game.

Cheers!
