Red Wine - A Guide to Red Wine

There are several different kinds of red wine. Most wines are made from grapes, including syrah,
cabernet and zinfandel varieties. If only one variety (merlot, for example) is listed on the label, the
wine is varietal and is named after the grape with a capital letter.

Further complicating things, some varieties are known by two different names. This is the case with
shiraz or syrah grapes. European wine makers only use the name syrah, but some Australian and
American vintners use the name shiraz. Typically, this kind of wine is made in France, California and
Australia.

If you aren't too familiar with red wine, you may want to start off by drinking Merlot. It has a soft
flavor that is easy to introduce to people who haven't had much experience with wine. It pairs with
just about any food, and is made along the western coast of America, Chile, Italy and Australia,
among others.

Barbera isn't as popular as Merlot is, but it has many similar attributes. It pairs well with tomato
sauces and can match just about any dish. While it has an Italian origin, it's also widespread in
California.

Cabernet sauvignon is generally accepted as one of the best varieties of wine, period. A wine that
usually undergoes an oak treatment, it's best when paired with simply prepared red meat. Sometimes,
Cabernet sauvignon has a slight vanilla flavor to it, though it comes from the oat treatment and not the
fruit itself.

Pinot noir grapes are extremely difficult to grow, but the wine tastes so good it's well worth the effort.
Fantastic with chicken, salmon and lamb, the wine is made in France, California, New Zealand and
Austria.

Of all of the reds, Zinfandel wine is the most versatile. Zinfandel wine can be a rich and heavy red
wine or it can be a light and fruity blush wine. Found only in California, it has a zesty flavor with
pepper and berry.
