Equipment

Recommended wine: Cabernet Sauvignon, Chablis, Malbec

Cabernet Sauvignon, Chablis, and Malbec are great choices for Stew. 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 Nickel & Nickel Quicksilver Cabernet Sauvignon with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 120 dollars per bottle.
