Grilled Steak - Rosemount Shiraz or Ch Souverain Cabernet $7-9.
Gumbo - A Gewurztraminer would be my choice with Pinot Gris a close second. But stay
in Alsace. The American versions are inconsistant.
Savory Chicken - Red Sauce(La Crema Pinot Noir or any Chianti)
Brown Sauce(Chianti or Rabbit Ridge Merlot)$9-15
Sweet Chicken - Rosemount Traminer-Riesling $6 Great Match
Italian Sausage - Chianti or Dolcetto $15+/-
Crabmeat au Gratin-Chardonnay (2001 Acacia or 2001 Ch Souverain)$15+/-
Crawfish/Shrimp Etouffe - Trimbach Gewurtztraminer or Pinot Gris $12-15
Stuffed Peppers - Tough match with Bell Peppers but I'd stick with
Trimbach Pinot
Gris
Stuffed Poultry - Stay lighter with a Brancott(New Zealand)
Sauvignon Blanc or Mondavi Fume Blanc $12-16
Jambalaya - Trimbach Pinot Gris or Rosemount Shiraz
Greek Lamb - I'd go with a Rutherford Hill Merlot or the
Rosemount Shiraz
Trout - Sauvignon blanc or a German Riesling Kabinett
There are Hundreds of other choices to go with these dishes but I named these from
my experiences and think you will enjoy all of them. Most are available at grocery stores and all are available at any wine
store.
