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-and-sausage Gumbo
Chardonnay's body and acid balance Chicken-and-sausage Gumbo's flavor profile.
The serious heart of Bordeaux's Left Bank — Cabernet-led blends with grippy tannins, blackcurrant, and cedar. Cellar-worthy at any quality level.

Haut Medoc and Chicken-and-sausage Gumbo make a workable pairing — taste, adjust, enjoy.
Red · Medium · Dry
A catchall for red wine generally — covers everything from a $12 weeknight pour to first-growth Bordeaux. Match the bottle's weight to the food's weight and you'll rarely go wrong.
Why it works with Chicken-and-sausage Gumbo
A mid-weight Red Wine flatters Chicken-and-sausage Gumbo without overshadowing it — neither pulls focus.
Rosé · Light · Dry
Pink wine, in any style — Provence's pale dry standard, Spanish rosado, California's sweeter blush. Match the weight to your meal and you'll do fine.
Why it works with Chicken-and-sausage Gumbo
Try Rose Wine with Chicken-and-sausage Gumbo when the weather is warm and the wine list short on heavy reds.
