Works with Brie And Wild Mushroom Fondue · Brie, Roquefort And Wild Mushroom Fondue

Red · Medium · Dry

California and Oregon's answer to Burgundy — riper, more upfront fruit than the French original, with cherry, raspberry, and gentle oak. Sonoma and Willamette set the standard.

White · Medium · Dry

The most-planted white grape and the most chameleon-like. Crisp and steely from Chablis; rich, oaky, and tropical from California. Read the label, then match the style to the dish.

Red · Medium · Dry

Chile's reds — Cabernet, Merlot, Carménère, blends — riper than Bordeaux, less brawny than Napa, often great value with notable green-pepper character.

Red · Medium · Dry

Tempranillo-based blend from northern Spain, traditionally oak-aged into something quietly profound. Cherry, dill, vanilla, leather; great with lamb, paella, and aged Manchego.
