Cabernet Sauvignon

Classic 15 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.

Malbec

Classic 14 dishes

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.

Rioja

Classic 14 dishes

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.

Syrah

Classic 14 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.

Grenache

Classic 10 dishes

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.

Shorthand most often for Pinot Noir — light-bodied, perfumed red wine with cherry and earth. Burgundy's most temperamental and rewarding grape.

pinot and Grilled Lamb Loin Chops make a workable pairing — taste, adjust, enjoy.

Zinfandel

Classic

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 Lamb Loin Chop

Zinfandel's weight matches Lamb Loin Chop's heft; the tannins keep the palate clean between bites.
