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. One wine you could try is Gilgal Syrah (OK Kosher). It has 4 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 18 dollars.
