Wine for Cured Meat

Cured meats pair beautifully with wines that go with their rich, savory flavors. Look for medium-bodied reds like Chianti, Grenache, or Syrah, which offer fruity notes and subtle spice. Aromas of dried herbs and earthiness enhance the pairing. Notable regions include Tuscany and the Rhône Valley. A tip: try a slightly chilled red to elevate the experience, as it brings out the freshness in the cured meats.
