Red · Medium · Dry
Shorthand for Cabernet Sauvignon — full-bodied, structured red wine with notes of black currant, graphite, and cedar. The classic steakhouse choice.
Why it works with Chicken Cacciatori
Medium reds like Cabernet hold up well to Chicken Cacciatori, especially when roasted or grilled.
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.
Why it works with Chicken Cacciatorie
Chardonnay matches chicken's mild richness — oaked for roast, unoaked for poached.
Red · Medium · Dry
Sangiovese from Tuscany's historic heartland — denser fruit, longer finish, and a structure that rewards aging. The pizza wine, elevated.
Why it works with Chicken Cacciatori
Medium reds like Chianti Classico hold up well to Chicken Cacciatori, especially when roasted or grilled.
Red · Light · Dry
Burgundy's most temperamental grape, but the rewards are real — translucent ruby with a perfumed lift of red cherry, forest floor, and clove. Silken tannins and bright acid make it the most versatile red on the table; serve cool, around 58°F.
Why it works with Chicken Cacciatorie
Light red that flatters chicken without overwhelming it — the all-purpose poultry pairing.
Rosé · Light · Dry
Provence's gift to summer — dry, pale, faintly strawberry-and-citrus, with low alcohol and crisp acid. Made to drink cold, with food, in the shade.
Why it works with Chicken Cacciatorie
Dry rosé bridges chicken across preparations from grilled to roasted to fried.
White · Light · Dry
Citrus, cut grass, and a wire of acid. Marlborough makes it loudest; Sancerre makes it most refined. Either way, it cuts cleanly through goat cheese, herbs, and anything with shellfish.
Why it works with Chicken Cacciatorie
Crisp white that lifts lighter chicken preparations with herbs and citrus.
