Recommended wine: Nero D Avola, Primitivo, Shiraz

Beef Stroganoff can be paired with Nero D Avola, Primitivo, and Shiraz. For a creamy, mushroomy beef stroganoff, you'll want a bold red to match. The Planeta Noto Nero d'Avola with a 4 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 23 dollars per bottle.

A lovely nose of mulberry and blackberry aromas lead way to a wine with vibrant acidity. Spice, balsamic notes and dark fruit elegantly mingle on the palate and lead way to a juicy finish. This is an excellent representation of the Nero d'Avola grape – grown in Noto, the best place in the world to produce this wine.
