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. One wine you could try is Lyeth Cabernet Sauvignon. It has 4.4 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 12 dollars.

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.
