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 Steak And Potatoes

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

Red · Full · Dry

California's misnamed powerhouse (no relation to Syrah) — inky, tannic, with notes of blueberry and black pepper. Built for the heaviest dishes on your table.

Why it works with Steak With Shallots And Lyonnaise Potatoes

Petite Sirah's firm tannins balance Steak With Shallots And Lyonnaise Potatoes's richness — the textbook structure-meets-protein match.

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 Steak And Potatoes

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 Steak And Potatoes

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