Wine and chorizo pairings

If you are looking for a wine to go with chorizo, we advise you to stay in the Iberian Peninsula, or: Spain or Portugal. Choose a red wine that is not too heavy, with nice fresh acids.

The Tempranillo from Spain is a great choice. They also make this type of wine in Portugal, although they call Tempranillo Aragonez (in Alentejo) or Tinta Roriz (in the Douro Valley).
