Red wine & pairing – The best food combinations for red wines

Red wine is the perfect accompaniment for a variety of dishes – from tender beef to spicy stews and strong cheeses. However, not every red wine goes well with every dish. Choosing the right wine depends on the tannins, acidity, fruit intensity and body of the wine.

While a light Pinot Noir harmonizes wonderfully with poultry or mushroom dishes, a powerful Cabernet Sauvignon perfectly complements a juicy steak. A fruity Primitivo or Merlot goes perfectly with Mediterranean dishes, while spicy varieties such as Syrah or Malbec are ideal for BBQ and stews.

Here you can find out which red wines go with which dishes and find delicious recipe recommendations for perfect pairings! 🍷✨
