Wine
Red wines from Bordeaux's Left Bank like Médoc and Pauillac. Cabernet Sauvignon dominant with powerful tannins and cassis aromas.
Dish
Quality beef simply grilled with salt and pepper. A classic dish with crispy exterior and juicy interior.
Why It Works
Bordeaux red's tannins bind with the meat's proteins, creating a smoother mouthfeel. The beef fat softens the wine's astringency in this classic, mutually enhancing pairing.
Flavor Harmony
The meat's umami and wine's fruitiness meld together, while pepper's aroma resonates with the wine's spice notes. Long finish with meat juices' sweetness harmonizing with cassis.
