Recommended wine: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir

Beef Short Ribs works really well with Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Pinot Noir. Beef and red wine are a classic combination. Generally, leaner cuts of beef go well with light or medium-bodied reds, such as pinot noir or merlot, while fattier cuts can handle a bold red, such as cabernet sauvingnon. You could try Miranda Lambert County Road Merlot Wine. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 28 dollars per bottle.

Miranda Lambert County Road Merlot Wine
Our most robust spirit is full of fruity flavor and powerful color yet smooth in texture and delivery. With its ripe berry essence the aroma lingers as long as the explosive finish. This dry velvety Merlot is endowed with just the right balance of power and finesse that make it an excellent companion to steak and pastas with full bodied red sauce and dark chocolate.
