American Zinfandel

Classic

Red · Medium · Dry

California's signature red — jammy, brambly, often 15% alcohol, with notes of blackberry, black pepper, and dried herb. Built for ribs and brisket.

Beaujolais

Interesting

Red · Light · Dry

Gamay-based reds from southern Burgundy — light, fruity, food-friendly. The serious Cru bottlings (Morgon, Fleurie, Moulin-à-Vent) drink like Pinot Noir at half the price.

Beaujolais brings cherry and earth alongside Korean-style Grilled Beef Short Ribs And Scallops; no clash, no domination, just balance.

Malbec

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 Scallops/short Ribs

Malbec's structured tannins frame Scallops/short Ribs; reach for this when the dish has weight to match.

Pinot Noir

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 Scallops/short Ribs

Light reds like Pinot Noir pair flexibly with Scallops/short Ribs — soft tannins, bright acid, food-friendliness.
