White · Medium · Dry

Alsace's everyday white — Pinot Bianco's French expression, all apple, pear, and a soft mineral finish. The reliable house-wine alternative.

Why it works with Gelfilte Fish

Pinot Blanc's mid-weight handles Gelfilte Fish well; the acid keeps the pairing crisp without weighing it down.

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 Gelfilte Fish

Sauvignon Blanc's racing acid and lean body lift Gelfilte Fish without competing — the textbook seafood-and-white-wine logic.
