Wine and Food Pairing paella

Which wine to drink with a paella?

Paella is not the national dish of Spain but that of the Valencia region (paella valenciana). Paella recipes are numerous and vary according to the seasons. The light, slightly tannic reds (rather Grenache-based) but with a ripe and generous fruitiness as well as the rosés (rather vinous) give tasty accords around the spicy notes of paella. Mixed paella (chicken, cuttlefish, shrimp, pork or lamb) is the most commonly cooked in France. It calls for rather powerful white wines with spicy and floral aromas.
