Pairing: Grilled steak or roasted lamb
Grilled steak or roasted lamb delivers a deep, savory richness that pairs well with a variety of wines. The char and smokiness from grilling steak enhance the beef's natural flavors, while roasted lamb's tender, juicy texture offers a deliciously fatty and mildly gamey taste. Both dishes work best with robust, tannic wines that balance the richness of the meat, making them ideal for hearty meals. These dishes are often complemented by garlic, herbs like rosemary, and spices for an earthy, aromatic finish.
