Recipe: Rosemary Grilled Lamb Chops
May 2003: page 188

Scott's Wine Suggestion:
The assertive characteristics of this recipe are perfect for the rich flavors and smooth texture of Zinfandel (and I don't mean the pink stuff). The fruitiness and touch of spiciness in the wine will really complement the robust char of the chops, which are marinated in red wine (use the wine you'll drink), then seasoned with lots of garlic and fragrant rosemary.
