Recommended wine: Shiraz, Tempranillo, Zinfandel

Beef Brisket can be paired with Shiraz, Tempranillo, and Zinfandel. All these red wines can handle the meaty, smokey flavor of brisket. If you're talking traditional Jewish brisket, you'll want to look for a kosher red wine. You could try Lafond SRH Series Syrah. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.6 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 20 dollars per bottle.

Lafond SRH Series Syrah
