Preparation

Place all ingredients, except for the meat, in a food processor and reduce to a purée. Place the steaks in a large airtight container and pour marinade on top. Cover, mix well and refrigerate for 6 to 24 hours, stirring occasionally. Remove from refrigerator 30 minutes before grilling.
Heat the barbecue to 200°C (400°F) (or a cast iron grill pan at medium-high heat) and oil surface lightly.
Place meat on grill and cook for 2-3 minutes. Rotate 45° and continue cooking for 2-3 minutes. Turn meat and repeat. Cook 2-3 minutes, rotate 45° and continue cooking for 2-3 minutes. Meat will be rare. Continue cooking until desired doneness.
Transfer to a plate. Wrap in aluminum foil and let stand 5 minutes. Slice into medallions and sprinkle with fleur de sel.

Altamente Jumilla 2023

Mediterranean Coast, Spain

Altamente Jumilla is a fruity, generous red made from monastrell, the Spanish name for mourvèdre. It has the ripe fruit to answer the blueberries in the marinade, and enough weight to hold its own against the grilled skirt steak, while the balsamic and thyme feel right at home. A red for a summer evening at the grill, steak sliced thin. See the product

Rouge des Appalaches, Frampton Brasse

The balsamic and the blueberries in the marinade call for a winey beer rather than a fresh one. An oak-aged Flanders red with cherries gives exactly that: notes of apple, mild vinegar and red berries, following the marinade and the rare side of the hanger steak. See the product

*Pairings are suggestions. If you can't find the exact product, substitute for the same type of beer or varietal blend from the same region. Feel free to ask a consultant for help!
