SPAIN : CATALONIA : D.O. PENEDESORGANIC : TempranilloMED-BODIED, RED FRUIT, DRIED CHERRY, TOAST, OAKBodegas Pinord has been making wine in Vilafranca del Penedès since the 1870s, and the Tetas family still runs the operation across three generations. The Taanug label — Hebrew for "pleasure" — is Pinord's fully supervised kosher line, made with Kosher for Passover yeasts under rabbinic oversight from pressing through bottling. This 2019 Crianza is 100% organically grown Tempranillo, fermented on the skins for 15 days and then aged 12 months in barrel before release. Certified vegan.Penedès 2019 ran small but well-regarded — wet conditions during flowering cut yields and concentrated the fruit, and Familia Torres called it an excellent vintage for the region. The wine is bright ruby, medium-bodied, smooth on the palate, with enough structure from the oak aging to work at the table.PAIRINGS : Lamb chops with herbs the classic Iberian pairing — Tempranillo's savory backbone and oak spice hold against the fat Roast chicken medium body and easy acidity make this versatile across poultry preparations Braised beef or brisket Tempranillo's natural affinity for slow-cooked beef; the Crianza structure cuts through the richness
