Recommended wine: Shiraz, Tempranillo, Zinfandel

Shiraz, Tempranillo, and Zinfandel are my top picks for Brisket. 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. You could try Happy Face Syrah Wine. Reviewers quite like it with a 5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 13 dollars per bottle.

The big hitter of the Rhone world, On the nose an old world earthy-herbaceous aroma. Bright Boysenberry, blackberry fruit up front followed by a wonderful plum, apricot finish! Pepper, clove and a hint of rosemary are contributing factors in this wines complexity complemented with its medium body and beautiful deep color. Pairs great with a wide array of BBQ! Tri-tip, red meats and my favorite a blue cheese burger.
