Red Wine Pairings

Bordeaux Braised Beef, 1 of Cooking Chat's favorite red wine pairings. Find more at cookingchatfood.comThis set of links to red wine pairings is a fun work in progress! I start by listing pairings for some of the major grape varietals that are fairly commonly found in an American consumer’s glass. Then I have sections for countries that have a wide array of grape varietals, which may be less familiar here in the states. Plenty of red wine pairings for you to enjoy!
