Today is National Chili Day! Some like it hot, some like it mild, with beans, without beans…so many different ways to feast on this tomatoey, tangy, Tex-Mex dish! What better way to enjoy your holiday than to pair your chili with a delicious glass of wine. Ward on Wine would suggest a bold and spicey Zinfandel to pair with your chili today. The medium acid in the wine will balance nicely with the tomato sauce and chili seasoning. It’s cold outside, so warm up with Zin and Chili!

Ward on Wine’s picks for Zin with your chili today:
