Recommended wine: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir
Steak can be paired with Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Pinot Noir. After all, beef and red wine are a classic combination. Generally, leaner steaks go well with light or medium-bodied reds, such as pinot noir or merlot, while fattier steaks can handle a bold red, such as cabernet sauvingnon. The Rabble Merlot with a 4.1 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 20 dollars per bottle.
Rabble Merlot
Sporting black cherry, dark berry, malt chocolate with nuanced French Oak notes of vanilla and mocha. Elegant and refined on the palate with plenty of dark fruit leading into a silky, soft finish.
