Feijoada—black beans, smoked meats, and pork rinds—is Brazil's most generous dish. Its richness, smokiness, and spices call for a full-bodied red wine with ripe tannins and no harshness.
OUR RECOMMENDATION
A red from the Southern Rhône—Châteauneuf-du-Pape or Gigondas. The roundness and aromas of candied black fruit, sweet spices, and garrigue in Grenache harmonize with the umami richness of the beans and the smokiness of the meats.
