American Cabernet Sauvignon

Classic

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.

Côte-rôtie

Syrah from the Rhône's steepest slopes, traditionally co-fermented with a touch of Viognier — bacon fat, violet, black pepper, brooding power. The reference for elegant Northern Rhône.

Malbec

Classic

Red · Full · Dry

Argentina's signature grape: deep purple, plummy, and remarkably smooth for its weight. Soft tannins and a touch of cocoa make it the dinner-party Cabernet alternative — and far easier on the wallet.

Why it works with Grilled Sirloin Steak

Argentine Malbec was bred for steak — supple tannin, dark plum fruit, no shyness.

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 Grilled Sirloin Steak

Syrah's pepper and dark fruit complement char and reduction sauces.

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 Grilled Sirloin Steak

Jammy Zin with peppered or BBQ-rubbed steak — American-leaning pairing.
