Wines for game dishes
Wine for game dishes is a type of wine that is ideally paired with dishes such as deer, wild boar, hare, venison, goose, partridge, and woodcock. It is usually a full-bodied red wine, such as a Pinot Noir, Syrah, Côtes du Rhône, Bordeaux or Zinfandel that can accompany the intense flavors and aromas of game dishes. It is important to choose a wine for game dishes that has a good balance of acidity, tannins and sugar to maximize the taste of the dishes. Full-bodied, tannic red wines are particularly popular with grilled or sauced game dishes.
