  Spanish wine friendly with spicy food!

  Los Monteros, Valencia D.O.
  
  A major seaport and the third largest city in Spain, Valencia also gives its name to an extensive vineyard area which surrounds the city. Los Monteros is produced from grapes grown in the Clariano sub-region, on terraced vineyards of an average altitude of 350 meters. The soil is reddish-brown and is rich in clay and limestone. Los Monteros is a round, full-flavored wine of great character. It is the result of modern winemaking, combined with very old vines which give low yields (less than six pounds of fruit per vine) of intensely flavored grapes.
  
  Los Monteros Blanco (White)
  
  Made from cold-fermented Merseguera and carbonic maceration fermented Moscatel de Alejandria varieties.
  The Los Monteros blanco pairs very well with spicy food such as asian food.
