Grilled Pork Chops

Grilled pork chops should be juicy, especially if they're brined before cooking. This meat can stand up to a red wine of some substance and tannin.

VALUE: Miguel Torres Celeste 2006 ($12) Robust with a firm tannic structure but not overpowering (pictured)

Domaine la Lorentine Lirac 2006 ($20) Savory, gamey, and round

Firriato Santagostino Rosso 2006 ($28) A hint of vanilla
