We preface all of our wine pairing suggestions by letting you know that it’s really a matter of personal taste. While we do offer our opinions and why we selected a specific varietal, there is no right or wrong answer when pairing a wine with your dinner.

Pinot Noir Wine
This Slow Cooker Asian Short Ribs Recipe is very robust and flavorful. Given the fact that there are so many different flavors coming from the dish, I would pair it with a Pinot Noir. Pinot Noir wines are generally lighter red wines without much oak. I feel that the dark cherry, unoaked flavors of a Pinot Noir would compliment this short ribs recipe.
