Red · Medium · Dry

The blend of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre that fills every wine list in France for a reason — friendly, peppery, slightly rustic, made to wash down anything from grilled vegetables to lamb stew.

Why it works with Lamb Tagine With Dried Apricots

Southern Rhône's peppery red is built for Moroccan lamb, dried fruit, and warming spice blends.

Grenache

Classic

Red · Medium · Dry

The grape that puts the warmth in southern French reds — strawberry, raspberry, white pepper, and a finish that's all sun and stones. The backbone of Châteauneuf-du-Pape and rosé from Provence.

Why it works with Lamb Tagine With Dried Apricots

Grenache-based Rhône reds echo the warm spice and dried fruit of tagines.

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 Lamb Tagine With Dried Apricots

Aged Rioja is the Iberian lamb pairing — cedar, leather, and bright acid.

Rosé

Classic

Rosé · Light · Dry

Provence's gift to summer — dry, pale, faintly strawberry-and-citrus, with low alcohol and crisp acid. Made to drink cold, with food, in the shade.

Why it works with Lamb Tagine With Dried Apricots

Dry rosé bridges the sweet-savory complexity of couscous and tagine without competing.

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 Lamb Tagine With Dried Apricots

Syrah's pepper and dark fruit are made for lamb — Rhône or northern New World, take your pick.
