Recommended wine: Cabernet Sauvignon, Chablis, Malbec

Stew works really well with Cabernet Sauvignon, Chablis, and Malbec. Full-bodied red wines like malbec and cabernet sauvignon are the perfect accompaniment for beef stew. Fish stew probably calls for a white wine, such as chablis. The Anakota Helena Dakota Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 50 dollars per bottle.

Anakota Helena Dakota Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon

The 2006 Helena Dakota Cabernet Sauvignon is a wine with a deep, dark red color. The nose presents notes of vanilla and oak. On the palate is an explosion of red fruits and minerality supported by a very round structure. The tannins are mature and present a long finish with hints of blonde tobacco. This wine can be decanted and enjoyed now, or it can be placed in your cellar. Before 2011, decant for full enjoyment.
