Red · Medium · 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.

Cabernet's tannic structure anchors beef's protein and fat.

Malbec

Classic

Red · Full · Dry

Why it works with Fillet Beef Wellington

Plummy Malbec with grippy tannin pairs cleanly with red meat.

Red · Medium · Dry

A medium-bodied red. Berry-driven, fresh, and well-suited to roasts, stews, and grilled fare.

Pinot Noir

Interesting

Red · Light · Dry

Burgundy's most temperamental grape, but the rewards are real — translucent ruby with a perfumed lift of red cherry, forest floor, and clove. Silken tannins and bright acid make it the most versatile red on the table; serve cool, around 58°F.

Why it works with Fillet Of Beef Wellington

Pinot Noir brings cherry and earth alongside Fillet Of Beef Wellington; no clash, no domination, just balance.

Rioja

Classic

Red · Medium · Dry

Tempranillo-based blend from northern Spain, traditionally oak-aged into something quietly profound. Cherry, dill, vanilla, leather; great with lamb, paella, and aged Manchego.

Why it works with Fillet Of Beef Wellington

Lighter than a Cabernet, Rioja still has the weight to match Fillet Of Beef Wellington's body.

Shiraz

Classic

Red · Full · Dry

Old-vine Shiraz from Barossa or McLaren Vale: dark, peppery, and unembarrassed about its size. Black plum, smoked meat, licorice, and a finish that lingers like the last embers of a grill.

Why it works with Fillet Of Beef Wellington

Shiraz's firm tannins balance Fillet Of Beef Wellington's richness — the textbook structure-meets-protein match.

Syrah

Classic

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.

Why it works with Fillet Beef Wellington

Syrah's pepper notes complement grilled and braised beef preparations.

Zinfandel

Interesting

Red · Full · Dry

California's brawler — jammy blackberry, brambly spice, and 15% alcohol that hides behind the fruit. Built for ribs, brisket, and anything that came off a grill.

Why it works with Fillet Beef Wellington

Jammy Zin lifts BBQ-style and bigger-flavored preparations.
