- KuhNayJun - 08-03-2005 Am having a Pork shoulder on the BBQ this afternoon. Pulled pork buns to be exact. Any help on a good wine pairing would be very appreciated. Sorry guest list full [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/wink.gif[/img] Forgot to mention that the pulled pork is SPICY......

[img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/biggrin.gif[/img] Drew - Kcwhippet - 08-03-2005 I agree with the red zin, but for an alternative how about a nice big Central Coast Syrah. - hotwine - 08-03-2005 I'd go with a Pinot Noir, something like one from Acacia, Sterling, Echelon, La Crema... nothing fancy or expensive. - Kcwhippet - 08-03-2005 Hotsy, how about the Saintsbury Garnet? Only about $16 or so and a seriuosly nice PN. - KuhNayJun - 08-03-2005 Only had white zin's in my cooler so took Kcwhippet's second suggestion of a syrah. Worked out great. Thanks kindly for all your help and suggestions. Will have a red zin for a tryout next time. Damn....still feeling the effects of the chocolate port that we had with dessert. Goooooood stuff!! - hotwine - 08-03-2005 I've not tried the Saintsbury PN KC but will look for it. - Kcwhippet - 08-03-2005 The Garnet is the one Harvey Steinam (I think) served blind to a Frenchman who imports high end Burgundies into the US. The guy thought it was a $40 to $50 Burgundy. - Drew - 08-05-2005 Which vintage of the Saintsbury Garnet KC? Drew |
