If you want to keep your meal simple, go for it! A juicy Syrah is dynamite with hamburgers, hot dogs, and corn on the cob. California's Central Coast and Washington's Columbia Valley are producing many examples of this seductive red.
Greet your guests with a glass of the latest vogue pink. Rose is making a huge comeback, with an increasing number of quality wines coming to market. Unlike the sweet White Zinfandel, roses can be dry, crisp, and refreshing. They make an excellent starter with appetizers and can be added to the list of seafood pairings. Roses from Tavel, in France's southern Rhone Valley, and Provence in southern France; rosados from Spain and various varietal roses from California are all examples of why rose is gaining such popularity.
Remember, don't worry about rules. Match wines that you like to drink with your menu, keeping in mind that one should not dominate the other. Think balance.
