Recommended wine: Zinfandel, Rose Wine

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. The Carnivor Zinfandel with a 4.2 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 16 dollars per bottle.

Full-bodied Carnivor Zinfandel is juicy, bold, big and flavorful, featuring hints of spice with a smooth touch for a complete palate. Intense dark fruit flavors of blackberry, plum and boysenberry are matched with notes of mocha, dark chocolate, black pepper and baking spice. Flavors of vanilla and toasted almond linger with a long, smooth finish.
