A glass of tasty wine and ribs, hot dogs, burgers, corn on the cob sizzling on the smoky grill\u2026 The thought alone makes your mouth water. They really know how to do it across the pond! <\/h2>\n\n

American-style barbecue food is hearty, and red wines are often recommended as barbecue wines. But don’t worry, there’s also a great white wine for grilling: what could suit an authentic American barbecue vibe better than the Californian Ironstone Old Vine Zinfandel and Ironstone Chardonnay! <\/p>\n\n

Finnish summer is famously interesting weather-wise, but these California natives will bring Californian warmth and sunshine to us at the very least. At a proper American-style barbecue, meat is not spared, and the grill sizzles hot until evening. Barbecue parties are a great time to hang out with friends and family, and if one thing is certain, it’s that no one will go hungry here. Hunger is satisfied, for example, with these generously filled juicy burgers, prepared by restaurant Boneless J\u00e4tk\u00e4saari<\/strong><\/a> in Helsinki. <\/p>\n\n

Classic American barbecue foods are, of course, the already mentioned burgers and hot dogs. The more meat, the more meat, so barbecue parties also include massive tomahawk steaks, which are enough for several people. Ribs, corn on the cob, and even fish and vegetables also find their way onto the hot grill. The food selection is wide-ranging, so it’s worth getting a couple of different wines to go with it, like Ironstone Old Vine Zinfandel and Ironstone Chardonnay. <\/p>\n\n

Ironstone Chardonnay<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Ironstone Chardonnay is a versatile food wine with plenty of expertise when it comes to grilled foods. In addition to steaks, this wine made from 100% Chardonnay grapes also pairs well with white meats, fish, and even shellfish. So feel free to throw some chicken or jumbo prawns on the grill! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ironstone Old Vine Zinfandel<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Ironstone Old Vine Zinfandel is especially suited as a meat wine. It has experience with pork and beef as well as game, but it also goes well with grilled vegetables, such as stuffed peppers. This medium-bodied wine is rich, balanced, and complex in character. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the delicious steaks are lifted off the grill, the burgers are of course also filled with mayonnaise, onions, or other toppings to your liking, and topped with melted cheese to create an authentic cheeseburger. A real feast for the eyes \u2013 not to mention the taste buds! <\/p>\n\n

On the side of the hot treats just placed on the plate, there’s of course a little \u2013 or preferably a really generous amount \u2013 of tasty mayonnaise-based coleslaw. And now that everyone’s on board, it’s time to dig in. <\/p>\n\n

When hot dogs and burgers have been eaten until you’re stuffed, there’s of course still dessert, namely toasted marshmallows. Barbecue parties prove it: a multi-course dinner doesn’t require white tablecloths \u2013 it can also be found around the grill. <\/p>\n\n
