Which red wine goes with roast beef?

Cabernet Sauvignon

Is Pinot Noir good with beef?

Pinot Noir The main reason why many people love this wine is that it is subtle, versatile, and food-friendly. Its fruity flavor and undertones of spices makes it blend perfectly with cuts of steak that contain low fats such as filet mignon and prime rib.

Does white wine go with beef?

Vietri recommends white wines like his with raw beef dishes, like carpaccio with olive oil and lemon juice. Indeed, a range of bright white wines, not just skin-contact examples, could work with a dish like that.

Do any white wines go with steak?

I'd suggest a full-bodied (and oaky) Chardonnay, Viognier or Marsanne. A mature white Rioja, or even an older Riesling might work. And I love Champagne or sparkling wines with steak (and especially steak tartare).

Can you use white wine on red meat?

Red wines typically pair well with red meat because meat stands up to the tannins, but you can substitute rich, full-bodied whites. White wines tend to have more acidity than reds, which can counterbalance rich foods and cut through heavy notes, especially when a dish is served with a sauce or in a stew.

What wine is best with prime rib?

But with a roasted prime rib, you don't need such a bold wine. While a Cabernet would be a solid choice, something more medium-bodied such as a Zinfandel or Merlot would also pair nicely. My personal favorite is a blend of primarily Zinfandel with bolder Petite Sirah and Syrah added in small amounts.
