Cabernet Sauvignon is one of the more complex and layered wines out there. It has stronger tannins and a savory character which can sometimes be perceived as black pepper and tobacco. Based on these qualities, look for foods high in fat and flavors for Cabernet Sauvignon food pairing. Try Cabernet Sauvignon with grilled pork, a chicken sausage and mushroom pizza with tomato sauce or a well marbled rib-eye steak.
