Recommended wine: Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel

Meatloaf can be paired with Cabernet Sauvignon and Zinfandel. Meatloaf will work with many red wines. We recommend something bold and fruity, like a Cabernet Sauvignon or Zinfandel. You could try Lyeth Cabernet Sauvignon. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 12 dollars per bottle.

Lyeth Cabernet Sauvignon

This is a complex wine with enticing aromas that are immediately evident as it pours from the bottle to the glass. Deep crimson in color, the wine spreads across the palate with layers of cherry, blueberry and cocoa.This Cabernet Sauvignon displays a nice tannin structure and would pair excellently with grilled meats and hard cheeses such as Parmigiano and Romano.
