The best I can come up with is "Goes well with" (or similar expressions), which isn't very elegant. Does anyone have anything better?

I actually agree with Colin's suggestions. I thought you were trying to get away from the "Goes well with" (or similar expressions)...

Explanation:
These and other options can all be found here:

http://glissonvineyards.com/sample-page

"This wine is recommended with hearty beef dishes and wild game."

"This wine pairs well with light, creamy pasta dishes as well as grilled lamb chops."

"The wine is best served with spicy dishes, fresh fruit and cheese spreads, pork, seafood, and smoked meats."

I'm going to leave it at that, as this is all making me feel very hungry (and thirsty!).
