Champagne

Interesting

Sparkling · Light · Dry

Méthode champenoise from the most chalk-rich corner of France — fine bubbles, brioche, lemon zest, and a finish that goes on for half a minute. The wine for anything fried, salty, or special.

Why it works with Grilled Sardines

Champagne's bubbles and acid lift Grilled Sardines — versatile and palate-cleansing.

Fortified · Full · Sweet

Andalusia's fortified white — runs from bone-dry Fino through nutty Amontillado to syrupy PX. The dry styles pair brilliantly with tapas; the sweet ones replace dessert entirely.

Why it works with Grilled Sardines

Sherry Fino's concentrated style brings depth to Grilled Sardines; pour in small glasses.
