red wine is us for what food?

Answer 1

Red wine is for any food you like to drink it with. No rules any more.
Careful not to choose a dessert wine with a meal though.
Australian Merlot is my choice for almost every dish I eat including most pasta dishes.

Answer 2

Primarily for red meat dishes, rich cheeses, smoking certain cigars. Now some of the lighter Reds like Pinot Noir can be consumed with poultry, even some of the lighter Cabernets can be drank while eating poutry.
Here's a bit of a guide
Pinot Noirs = Veal, poultry, generally lightly falvored meats
Cabernets = some poultry(dark meat, thighs and legs) steaks, chops, stews
Merlot = red meat, all steaks, lamb,gamey stews
Shiraz = Big flavored meat dishes, wild game, strong cheeses. Shiraz wines are big in many ways so when you drink this wine with a meal, your meal had better have a lot of flavor
Bordeaux = pure luxury. Same as shiraz and can be an after dinner wine
Ice Wines are strickly for dessert. Done eat a steak with ice wine it's way too sweet.

Enjoy the vino

Answer 3

Red wine is usually stronger flavored than white wine. You should try it with stronger flavored foods. Is Salmon with garlic and dill light? Is pork loin with a lemon sauce heavy? What about spicy, barbequed chicken breast? I spent 9 years working in an exclusive wine shop and almost any customer who was planning to serve Italian food wanted red wine. But what about fettucine Alfredo? Pasta is just a type of bread, really. What you pour over it makes the difference.

In the end, it's your interpretation. But you also have to please your guests. If only for you, drink what you like. I like any good wine but I usually want red wine with most of the dishes I choose since I like stronger flavored foods. I have friends who never drink white wine no matter what they are eating.

Consider the dish as a whole rather than just one of the main parts of it. And consider the selection of the main ingredient. For example, is turkey light or heavy? That depends on whether you are eating the breast or the leg.

And let's leave cigars out of this Peee-yewwww!!! With that noxious smell in the air, I can't enjoy the food.

Answer 4

Traditionally beef or pork dishes. I have heard it said lately by chefs on The Food Network that you serve the wine you like with either meat, fish, or pork. Current thinking is if you like the wine, then go ahead and serve it regardless of the color of it at a dinner.

Answer 5

Serve red wine with beef entrees; I serve a white wine with pork chops and with fish.

Answer 6

Red meats, pasta with red sauces = red wine

Fish, white sauces = white wine

Chicken= either one but I like to use which EVER wine I'm drinking, in the chicken recipe too.

You can put burgundy in beef stew which is really good!~
