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 Lentil Soup With Rice

Chardonnay's body matches creamy and bisque-style soups.

White · Light · Dry

Italy's everyday white — light, lemony, neutral by design. Pleasant with anything; profound with very little. The best Friuli bottles are quietly excellent.

Why it works with Lentil Soup With Rice

Clean white for risotto, paella, and rice salads.

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 Lentil Soup With Rice

Crisp white that refreshes rice-based dishes and lighter preparations.

Sherry

Classic

Fortified · Medium · Dry

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 Lentil Soup With Rice

Dry sherry with consommé and clear broths is the classical aperitif move.
