When it comes to iconic Napa bites, Rutherford Grill ribs are the stuff of legend. Smoky, saucy, and shamelessly finger-lickin’, they’ve earned their place as a must-do on every Napa itinerary, right up there with barrel tastings and that one “accidental” case purchase.
And what pairs best with these ribs? Enter Syrah and Shiraz, strutting in from every corner of the globe with swagger and spice. From Rhône Valley classics with savory depth, to plush Australian Shiraz that brings bold fruit and barbecue energy. Washington State chimes in with rich, spicy Syrah made for meat, while California cool-climate picks add structure and lift that cut through the sauce like a pro.
It’s a pairing made for long weekends, loud dinners, and wine-stained napkins. Whether you’re reliving that perfect Rutherford patio lunch or just trying to recreate the magic at home, this lineup brings together the world’s best Syrahs and the ribs that started it all.
Globetrotting Syrah. Napa-famous ribs. One unforgettable pairing.
