Recommended wine: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir

Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Pinot Noir are great choices for Steak. 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. You could try Anthem Estate Merlot Mt. Veeder Napa Valley Wine. Reviewers quite like it with a 5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 99 dollars per bottle.
