Recommended wine: Shiraz, Tempranillo, Zinfandel

Shiraz, Tempranillo, and Zinfandel are great choices for Beef Brisket. 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. One wine you could try is Tournon Mathilda Shiraz. It has 4 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 16 dollars.
