Recommended wine: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir

Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Pinot Noir are my top picks 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. One wine you could try is Four Brix Winery Paso Robles Sangiovese, Cab, Merlot "Scosso" Blend. It has 5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 40 dollars.

Four Brix Winery Paso Robles Sangiovese, Cab, Merlot "Scosso" Blend
A Californian "Super Tuscan" of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot is a full-gallup ride for the senses. Concentrated aroma of raspberries and blackberries with tobacco and spice give a warm bold nose to this blend. Raspberry and espresso on the palate are balanced by full tannins and rounded by hints of pepper and vanilla with a sweet berry finish.
