Recommended wine: Shiraz, Tempranillo, Zinfandel

Beef Brisket works really well with Shiraz, Tempranillo, and Zinfandel. All these red wines can handle the meaty, smokey flavor of brisket. If you're talking traditional Jewish brisket, you'll want to look for a kosher red wine. The Rosemount Grenache-Syrah-Mouvedre G.S.M. with a 4.1 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 30 dollars per bottle.

Rosemount Grenache-Syrah-Mouvedre G.S.M.
1997 GSM has a deep crimson appearance and displays intense berry fruit aromas with a deep underlying smokey spice. Savoury oak is also evident, underlying the primary fruit characters. On the palate, the wine displays a fine depth of deep, spicy fruit flavour, rich in cinnamon and liquorice characters with a background of dusty, soft ripe tannins. There is a rich, core of dark fruit and a long finish indicative of a high quality wine with the capacity to age up to ten more years. The wine comprises 50% Grenache, 40% Syrah and 10% Mourvedre.
