Unlike summer, the crisp air of autumn doesn’t always call for a chilled white wine or rosé with dinner—although both tend to complement many of our favorite Mediterranean flavors. It does, however, call for a nice bottle of red. So this season, we recommend three delicious recipes and red wines that’ll enhance them.
What to sip with something like this zesty and cheesy Southwest Chicken Pasta dish? Try a Zinfandel, which is light-bodied, but can hold up to this dish with its bold acidity.
These flavorful feta Stuffed Peppers will pair nicely with a glass of Côtes-du-Rhône, a French blend of grapes that tends to bring out its decent acid and soft tannins.
These easy-to-make Mediterranean Tacos will pair well with an easy-to-drink Tempranillo, a primarily Spanish wine with medium acid and tannins.
