Notes / Tips / Wine Advice:
Wine Advice:
Pair this hearty and robust chili with a full-bodied red wine like Malbec or Cabernet Sauvignon. The richness of the wine will complement the bold flavors of the chili. For a non-alcoholic option, consider serving it with a glass of sparkling water with a twist of lime for a refreshing contrast.Nutritional Information
