Here are some simple pairing guidelines.
If steak is on the grill, serve up Malbec, Shiraz, or Zinfandel. For fresh gourmet burgers, Shiraz and Zinfandel will serve. Pinot Noir and Chardonnay will round off your pork and chicken grilled recipes, respectively. If you’re thinking salmon, keep it light with a Pino Gris or Riesling.
