Best wines to go with Lamb

The supreme wine pairings to match lamb are red wines. The best? Cabernet Sauvignon from Bordeaux; Pinot Noir from Burgundy; or Chianti; or Rioja. But Portuguese reds, or broad and juicy wines from Puglia in the heel of Italy, can work just as well. So too can those from the New World, such as an elegant Shiraz or even an aged Zinfandel.

And while we're at it, though red wines traditionally have the corner on excellence in matching, you will be hugely rewarded if you choose to pair your lamb with whites such as white Burgundy or even a dry Riesling.

The trick? Pick wine that you love and make sure the meat is really, really good!
