Zinfandel and rosé Wine are great choices for Barbecue. A rosé is refreshing in hot temperatures and complements sweet and spicy sauces and rubs. Zinfandel is a classic red wine choice for barbecue, especially for pork ribs and beef brisket. You could try Oak Farm Lodi Zinfandel. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 25 dollars per bottle.
