“La Casa de Papel” is a sensation in Spain and has hit the US as “Money Heist” via Netflix. This is a binge worthy series that will have you reading subtitles in no time! Markus and I had fun analyzing each character to see which Bokisch wine they resemble. Watch the series while sipping along with our Bokisch line up and let us know if you agree with our wine personality assessment!
A clever way to hide their identities, each character goes by a code name of a city such as: Tokyo, Moscow, Berlin, Nairobi, Rio, Denver, Helsinki, and Oslo. They wear identical Salvador Dali masks which add a uniquely stylish yet, eerily evil feeling to the drama.
This is “Tokyo.” She is sleek, determined, complex and silently grows on you. Our top choice of wine to match her character is our Tempranillo. She is approachable young, but will age elegantly with time. She is our most popular wine and will leave a mark on your soul.
Next is “Berlin.” He is dark, serious and mysterious. He keeps you guessing on who he really is yet, always letting you know that he is in control and important. Eventually you will yield to his taste. Who is the best match to describe Berlin? Graciano, of course!
“Nairobi” is Garnacha…Cha, Cha, Cha! She is the heart and soul of Spain with her Flamenco-like style, her bravado and animation. She is true to her roots and doesn’t shy away from the spotlight. She holds the team together and doesn’t play favorites. Garnacha is her game. Red, White and Rosé! Olé!
El “Profesor” is the mastermind. He is crafty, calculated, layered with complexity. He will do what it takes to succeed and nothing will stop him, including love. It has taken him years to create the perfect plan. The perfect heist. He is aged beyond his years and is the ultimate perfectionist. He is our Gran Reserva Tempranillo who patiently waits 3 years in barrel and 2 years in the bottle before release. Uncork the legend!
To enjoy the full experience, pick up a four pack of our Spanish wines to enjoy with the series! Tempranillo, Gran Reserva, Graciano and Garnacha!
