Wine
is a great accompaniment to steak meals. In fact, various wines taste
much more refreshing when paired with steak. The secret is basic, to
know which wine goes well with which dish. You can consider the
following suggestions with grilled steaks.
Pair a
traditional grilled steak with a full-bodied red wine, such as a Duck
Pond, Syrah, Columbia Valley or Luke Donald Collection ‘Nappa
Valley’. These wines when combined with simply grilled steaks
create a lush, flavourful taste. Cline Zinfandel, California or
Paraduxx, Napa Valley are also good choices.
Tip:
Open the red wine bottle 20 minutes prior to your meal to enjoy the
fully developed wine flavours.
Drink Rose
wine with a steak adorned with barbecue sauce. A Lisa' Malbec,
Patagonia, Argentina 2010 is a great wine to accompany red sauces.
The high acid content in this red wine matches well with the high
acid content in the barbequed steak. Joseph Phelps, Cabernet
Sauvignon, Napa Valley and Joseph Phelps, Cabernet Sauvignon, are
also good matches.
Accompany a
spicy steak with a Royal Tokaji, 5 Puttonyos Aszù, Hungary 2007.
For a more
enjoyable evening you can also add cheese cakes, raisin scones,
finger chips and crispy salads to relish a complete steak meal.
