Each week, I get a couple of grocery brochures. German grocery chains like to advertise and 'hook' people into making a special trip out....to buy stuff.
So this week, I noticed this wine advertisement....well...steak wine. Some wine chain contracted out to two wine organizations and 'labeled' their wares for steak wine. 3.49 Euro a bottle (roughly $3.75).
To be honest....I'm a bit of a steak eater but I never really thought much over the drink to have with it. Typically, it'd be ice tea.....a Pepsi.....or a beer. Wine with steak? No.
I suspect that a quarter of folks looking through this brochure will stop and eventually 'X' the wine area and buy a bottle or two. The thing is....it's simply cheap dry wine. You could use it with chicken, pork steaks, bacon, or waffles.
Starting a new trend for steak folks? Maybe. Who knows....maybe even the A-1 sauce people will make up a new sauce with red wine included.
