ate that all yesterday, so we have chicken tonight...

im assuming from the steak recomendation a slightly spicier, but not overly spicey chicken would be good??

go with not spicy... cab savignon is usually a fairly mild, smoothe wine

i mixed up some spices and stuff, and it should go well with the wine, especially with the chicken, i didnt put much on, but there is plenty on it.

Big flavors, but not spicy.

Mirassou's cab has a bit of merlot in it, so it's not as spicy as a full cab can be. Nice year for CA reds though.

whatever i made, a bunch of spices + noodle + chicken was damn fvcking good, but ive had about 2 bottles of wine myself, so im trying for an amazing night right now, ill update sometime with how the night goes, it should be fun. lots of red wine, most of the mirassou, a Michigan red wine, that tasted like a mix, and now some shiraz, almost gone, and ill finish whatever else is left if i can get this 4 sum goin, itshould be amazing.

Meh, my car's sitting on a lift, with no engine. Heck, there's not even any seats inside. It would be a really boring ride.

Steak or other red meat goes well with Cabernet Sauvignon.

Yeah, you need something that has a big flavor otherwise the the Cab Sauvignon will overpower the meal.

beer goes best with spicy foods, not wine.
