Cabernet, I knew it as I posted but wanted to see what you'd have to say.
But Shiraz for the surf&turf? Why I wouldn't have guessed. But I'm intrigued. Checking online I see there are several at my local liquor mart from Australia, Chile, South Africa, and California.
Any particular label? Edit: strike that, I see here http://www.wine-searcher.com/find/tw...outh+australia is what you were referring to.
I must warn you I may throw a few char-broiled garlic buttered shrimp in with this meal. Once I start fooling with scallops I generally can't stop there, being the seafood freak that I am.
Stinger... that's the one with creme de menthe, no? I've never ordered one but vaguely know of it. I've always been more of a gin&tonic, vodka-tonic, rum&coke or spicey ceasar kind of guy but I'm up for a girly drink.

go ahead and laugh at the stinger.

7 parts cognac, 1 part white mint.
But yeah, whenever I have a lot of butter, I go for a big cab or shiraz. screw that "white wine with fish" nonsense.
