Pinot Noir, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon are my top picks for Flank Steak. Pinot noir's light body is great for lean cuts, medium bodied sangiovese complement meaty sauces, stews, and other multi-ingredient dishes, and full-bodied tannic malbec pairs with fatty cuts and barbecue. The Peter Michael Le Caprice Pinot Noir with a 4.9 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 259 dollars per bottle.
Peter Michael Le Caprice Pinot Noir
Deep red ruby color and bright crimson tinge is the clear identifierfor Le Caprice. The vineyard shows its signature characteristics ofred forest fruit coupled with aromas of red cherry liqueur, currant,raspberry, strawberry, fresh leather and graphite. The 2010 vintageis refined and expressive with intense concentration in the mouth.The finish lingers both aromatically and subtly on the palate.
