Wine with game: consider the sauce

Delicate venison or a rich stew? Narrow down your choice by the whole dish.

Weingut Arnold Pauly editorial team · · 2 min read

Different dishes need different choices

Quickly cooked venison and a slow game stew are very different meals. Consider sauce and accompaniments: dark gravy, sweet cranberries and creamy mushrooms each take the dish in a different direction. “Game” alone is not enough information for a wine recommendation.

A dry red option

Our dry Dornfelder is an option for guests seeking dry red wine with a dark sauce. The product page gives its vintage and analysis. Send the full wine name with a specific question so we can identify the right product.

If you prefer feinherb

If you prefer a less dry style, try feinherb Spätburgunder. With sweet accompaniments, tasting wine alongside the complete bite is particularly useful. For a mixed group, offer both styles rather than insisting on a supposedly perfect match.

A useful shopping note

Write down the meat, sauce, sides and whether you prefer dry or feinherb. These four details make advice much more specific. For an important meal, consider comparing a bottle beforehand. Our shop displays current prices, availability and shipping.
