If you’re looking to explore and try some new wine varieties from now until December, here are three great options that pair well with the season’s typical cuisine and the falling temperatures.
Tempranillo
This Spanish red wine variety is the country’s most popular grape and constitutes the majority of red wines produced by famed growing regions such as La Rioja. Its medium, dry body and the tannins, cherry, and tobacco flavors that come from this wine make it a perfect choice in fall.
Cabernet Franc
Cabernet Franc is often blended with other French grape varieties, but if you can find it on its own, it’s a great selection for the fall on the red wine front. It’s a moderate wine in its overall profile with great notes of plum and strawberry, without being too sweet.
Gewurztraminer
Are you looking for a white wine for this fall? Look no further than Gewurztraminer, a German white wine variety with a medium body that goes great with meats like turkey and also fall pasta dishes. You’ll find notes of apricot and other stone fruits in this pleasant wine.
