Chardonnay

Classic

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 Roasted Orange Rosemary Honey Glazed Chicken

Chardonnay matches chicken's mild richness — oaked for roast, unoaked for poached.

Sparkling · Light · Sweet

Asti's more refined sibling — gently frizzante, only 5-6% alcohol, all peach and orange blossom. The perfect summer dessert wine.

Why it works with Roasted Orange Rosemary Honey Glazed Chicken

Light sweet sparkling with fresh fruit — the simplest dessert pairing that works.

Petite Sirah

Interesting

Red · Full · Dry

California's misnamed powerhouse (no relation to Syrah) — inky, tannic, with notes of blueberry and black pepper. Built for the heaviest dishes on your table.

Why it works with Honey-and-spice-glazed Chicken

Petite Sirah's structured tannins frame Honey-and-spice-glazed Chicken; reach for this when the dish has weight to match.

Rosé

Classic

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 Roasted Orange Rosemary Honey Glazed Chicken

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 Roasted Orange Rosemary Honey Glazed Chicken

Crisp white that lifts lighter chicken preparations with herbs and citrus.

Viognier

Classic

White · Medium · Dry

The white grape of the Northern Rhône — full-bodied, peachy, faintly perfumed, with the texture of a quiet Chardonnay. Pairs with anything saffron-tinged or apricot-glazed.

Why it works with Honey Glazed Chicken

Viognier's stone fruit and gentle structure are tailor-made for roasted Honey Glazed Chicken.
