Desperately seeking wine ................

[KuhNayJun]

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/eek.gif[/img]

I agree with the red zin, but for an alternative how about a nice big Central Coast Syrah.

I'd go with a Pinot Noir, something like one from Acacia, Sterling, Echelon, La Crema... nothing fancy or expensive.

Hotsy, how about the Saintsbury Garnet? Only about $16 or so and a seriuosly nice PN.

[KuhNayJun]

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!!

I've not tried the Saintsbury PN KC but will look for it.

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.

Which vintage of the Saintsbury Garnet KC?
