A dilemma faced by millennia of diners as to whether they wash down their meal\u00a0with either White or Red wine.

Red or White?<!--more--><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>The answer of course is neither simple nor complex. <\/em><\/p>\n<p>Confused? I was too so I conducted a little homespun research of my own to establish which, \u00a0if any, was the ultimate one-size-fits-all wine, whether one is dining posh or having a good old fashioned piss up. (I&#8217;m somewhat of an expert at each, so the stage was set for a mega night of testing under the loosest guidelines&#8230;)<\/p>\n<p>I also like food, generally too much in quantity and\u00a0calorific intake, though my Physio told me not to be caught up in a rudimentary Calorie War, per se. Yeehaaaa! But the problem with having an ambitious idea at 8pm\u00a0on a Sunday\u00a0night when the shops have shut, is a limited variety\u00a0of food and wine. If like me, you live hand to mouth, forward planning may\u00a0not be your forte. So, one steak &#8220;au poivre&#8221; with steamed veg and a rather nice bottle of Penfolds Kalimna Bin 28 Shiraz (retailing at Dan Murphies for $27.60) it was.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.budgetpromotion.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Penfolds-Kalimna-Bin-28-Shiraz.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-660\" src=\"http:\/\/www.budgetpromotion.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Penfolds-Kalimna-Bin-28-Shiraz.png\" alt=\"Penfolds Kalimna Bin 28 Shiraz\" width=\"308\" height=\"385\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.budgetpromotion.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Penfolds-Kalimna-Bin-28-Shiraz.png 308w, https:\/\/www.budgetpromotion.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Penfolds-Kalimna-Bin-28-Shiraz-240x300.png 240w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 308px) 100vw, 308px\" \/><\/a>Hold on, what about a comparison with white wine and an accompanying dish? Bollocks to that, it was\u00a0late and I needed results! Also, there\u00a0was\u00a0one and a half glasses of that red coursing through my Augustan veins,\u00a0driving me incessantly towards that steak and the BBQ. It\u00a0had become a mission possible, having abseiled down the hall, past the dog in its basket, out the back door and onto the deck. I&#8217;d a lump of marinated meat in one hand and a glass of Shiraz in the other, and was going to smash both.<\/p>\n<p>Why did I have steak instead of fish or chicken? What propped up\u00a0the fulcrum of this futile experiment?<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s the quest for iron, zinc and B vitamins, and their rapid absorption into my body. Red meat does all that, better. Plus it pumps more protein and healthy fats rich in Amino acids into your system. That&#8217;s why I eat more red than white meat&#8230;and that&#8217;s possibly why I drink more red wine than white. Red just tastes better with fat.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t get me wrong though and presume I&#8217;m an anally retentive, dyed-in-the-wool, change resisting luddite with a fixation for all things rouge &#8211; I&#8217;ll down a bottle Chard on a whim, along with a bucket of prawns if left to my own devices\/vices.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.budgetpromotion.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/custom-glassware.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-659\" src=\"http:\/\/www.budgetpromotion.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/custom-glassware.jpg\" alt=\"custom glassware\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.budgetpromotion.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/custom-glassware.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.budgetpromotion.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/custom-glassware-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a>And there, the lab test fell flat on it&#8217;s face.
