Wine and food pairing: barbecued brochettes

Barbecued kebabs offer endless versatility in terms of flavors and textures. Whether you opt for juicy cuts of meat, succulent seafood, crunchy vegetables or a combination of these, grilling adds a dimension of smoke and caramelization that enhances the flavors of each ingredient.

To choose the perfect wine to accompany your barbecued kebabs, it's essential to consider several factors:

The type of skewer: red meat skewers marry differently with wines than fish or vegetable skewers. It's important to take into account the flavors and sauces used in the preparation.

The marinades and sauces used.

Marinades and sauces: If your brochettes are marinated or accompanied by spicy sauces, choose a wine that can balance these flavors without overpowering them.

Side dishes: Take into account the accompaniments served with the kebabs, such as salads, sauces or condiments, and make sure the wine goes harmoniously with the meal as a whole.

Some suggestions for wine pairings.

Here are a few suggestions for wine and barbecue kebab pairings to guide you in your choice:

Herb-marinated chicken kebabs: Pair with a light, greedy, fruity red. The cuvée le Vin est une fête du domaine Elian Da Ros or an organic Cevennes wine, the cuvée Luna du Mas Bres will be 2 good companions.

Grilled beef skewers: opt for a full-bodied red wine like a Cabernet Sauvignon or Syrah to complement the richness and robustness of the grilled meat. A Crozes-Hermitage du domaine Combier or a Côtes du Rhone du domaine Pique-Basse will be great choices.

Shrimp and vegetable skewers: Choose a dry, fruity white wine like a Pinot Grigio or a Riesling, the one from Domaine Ginglinger for example to accompany the freshness of seafood and grilled vegetables.
