There are certain types of wines that go better with some types of meat than others and wines by 'Rod & Rifle' were designed to acknowledge this.
While it's easy to go into any liquor store and choose a white wine for serving with fish or a red wine to match with a red meat, Rod & Rifle wines are specifically designed to be paired with wild game. For instance, the Rod & Rifle White Chardonnay boasts a zesty flavor with fresh fruit notes that is suggested for serving alongside fish, while the Rosé of Syrah is best paired with wild fowl and the Merlot of Sangiovese is best suited for serving alongside large game.
Sales of these 'Hunting and Fishing Wines' support local, state and national hunting and fishing conservation groups.
