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.

Why it works with Asian Beef Short Ribs

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

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 Asian Short Ribs

Light reds like Pinot Noir pair flexibly with Asian Short Ribs — soft tannins, bright acid, food-friendliness.

Red · Medium · Dry

Rioja with at least three years of aging (one in oak) — fuller, more savory, more cedar-and-leather complexity than the everyday bottlings. The sweet spot of Spanish red.

Why it works with Asian Short Ribs

Rioja Reserva's cherry-and-spice profile pairs gently with Asian Short Ribs.
