What is a good Red wine that go's well with steak?

A Bordeaux from the Medoc area. Alas, somewhat pricey around here.

First of all, please be aware that most fruity red wines are dry (just as are most fruity white wines). The fruitiness masks the dryness. What you seem to be really saying is that you prefer

[fruity] red wines that are not too tannic.

That being written, I must tell you that I don't follow the drift of your question. If you already know you prefer fruitier wines, what exactly are you asking??.

Good [beef]steak happens to be almost a ubiquitous match for red wine. There is hardly a decent dry red wine made at any price that does not complement it especially when the steak is served with a good starch, although as a general rule most people would say if the steak is served with a sauce or a spicing, the heartier the sauce or spicing (e.g.: a porto peppercorn sauce, or a Montreal steak spice) the more robust and/or tannic the red wine might be to match it.

Most of the world's red wines not made or suitable for aging are

fruitier and less tannic, so you are in luck; you will never live long enough to be able to enjoy more than a miniscule fraction of them. They are often the more inexpensive, also (exception: good pinot noirs). The most famous of the fruitiest are made from gamay, like Beaujolais. Grenache (garnacha) also usually makes fruity wines, though with more steeliness than gamay. The northern Italian favorites Valpolicella and Bardolino of course are also always dependable, as are most French Loire Valley reds (the Answerer "Tokala"'s recommendation of Saumer is one of them).

If trying something different or new, as a general rule avoid red wines with alcohol greater than 12 or 12.5%. Anything higher suggests longer fermentation of grapes harvested late, a sure sign the winemaker wanted to make a "tannic bomber."

Not knowing from your question what are the "fruity" wines you prefer now, I cannot give many further suggestions.

A sweet wine destroys your tastebuds leaving you unable to taste other food properly.

That said, there are 'fruity' dry wines. Zinfandel (NOT WHITE i.e. pink) is very jammy and full flavoured. Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, Amarone, Bordeaux (generall cab sauv/merlot mix) or cotes du rhone would all be good, among other things. All have lots of fruit and are strongly flavoured enough to go with steak.

I'd consider a beajolais much to light to go with steak, at least as an ideal pairing, though it is a delicious wine.

A rich Buttery Merlot is my fave, but merlot's tend to be on the dry side. A nice young concord wine will be rich & fruity. Any wine made with "black" Muscadine grapes will be sweet & fruity as well

You might also want to try a nice port wine.

If you like cheap and fruity slug down some Mexican Sangria and have your steak cooked in a mexican dish. If you want something dryer but still not too dry pick Lambrusco or Merlot (less dry version)

For a steak and fries, try a Saumur.

For a grilled steak, try a Beaujolais Villages (you'll like this one if you like fruity wines)

A bordeaux is always good with steak too.

That's my opinion, but try this site : http://www.platsnetvins.com/

In the "Plat ou mets" write what you want to eat (in your case "steak"), click on "Rechercher les accords" and you'll get every wine good with that dish.

Silver Oak Cabernet

My wife received a bottle of wine as a welcoming gift for her new position at work. It's a Merlot that was very good.

Vampire Merlot is the name. It wasn't bitter or dry at all. It left a slight fizz on the tongue and was really good which surprised me.

It's produced and bottled in Transylvania, Romania.

I just had a very good Pinot Noir with my meal last night. Its from Chateau St Jean 2004. It is not too dry, with a slight sweetness to it. Not sweet by any means, but you can tell it is there. I was very impressed by it. It is also around a $20 bottle. I highly recommend it.

Merlot always goes well.

Try Cabernet Sauvignon

Or Dole
