Stick-to-Your-Ribs Reds
February 21, 2004
Listen to this feature (How to listen)
Hearty meat dishes, rich stews and braises call for hefty red wines that will stand up to the robust flavors of wintertime fare. Josh Wesson likes these moderately priced bottles:
Argentina: Ben Marco, Dominio del Plata is rich, full bodied, almost chewy. About $20.
France: Chateau Combelle, St. Chainan is spicy and sweet, very big and rich, but low in tannins. An altogether friendly and flexible wine.
Spain: Bodegas Casa de la Ermita is a real mouthful. Silky and rich with "jammy," plum flavors and a scent of cherry pie and campfire smoke. About $12.
