Cabernet Sauvignon

Classic 4 dishes

Red · Full · Dry

The benchmark for full-bodied red — structured, age-worthy, unapologetic. Black currant, graphite, and tobacco lead into firm tannins that demand protein on the plate. Decant young bottles; cellar the serious ones.

Syrah

Classic 4 dishes

Red · Full · Dry

Shiraz's more reserved European cousin — Northern Rhône style, all violets, black olive, and white pepper. Less brawn, more poise; pairs as well with lamb as with peppered duck breast.

Amarone

Classic

Red · Full · Dry

Veneto's heavyweight — dried grapes give wines of remarkable concentration, raisin, dark fig, and a faint bitter-chocolate finish. Sip with hard cheese; never with a salad.

Amarone brings bones to Beef Burgundy's flesh — tannin, oak, and dark fruit framing the meat's richness.

Red · Medium · Dry

Red · Medium · Dry

A step above generic Beaujolais — Gamay from 38 designated villages, with more weight and a longer finish. The everyday Burgundy at half the price.
