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.
Works with Nacho's · Chicken Nachos · Creamed Spinach Nachos
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.
Works with Nacho's · Chicken Nachos
Red · Light · Dry
Burgundy's most temperamental grape, but the rewards are real — translucent ruby with a perfumed lift of red cherry, forest floor, and clove. Silken tannins and bright acid make it the most versatile red on the table; serve cool, around 58°F.

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.
Works with Chicken Nachos · Creamed Spinach Nachos
Sparkling · Light · Dry
Spain's traditional-method sparkling, made in Catalunya. Crisper and chalkier than Prosecco; remarkable value next to Champagne. Pair with jamón, tortilla, and grilled vegetables.
Why it works with Nacho's
Bubbles refresh any palate — the default sparkling backup for unfamiliar territory.
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 Nachos
Champagne's bubbles and acid lift Nachos — versatile and palate-cleansing.
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 Creamed Spinach Nachos
Clean white that lets vegetable preparations stay center stage.
Sparkling · Light · Dry
Pacific Northwest sparkling wine — Washington and Oregon's cool-climate Chardonnay/Pinot Noir bottlings, often serious traditional-method bottlings at honest prices.
Why it works with Nachos
Sparkling Wine Nw's bubbles and acid lift Nachos — versatile and palate-cleansing.
White · Medium · Dry
California's introduction to wine for an entire generation — slightly sweet, lightly fruity, easy to like. Pair with brunch, spice, or nothing at all.
Why it works with Nachos
White Zin's body and acid balance Nachos's flavor profile.
Red · Full · Dry
California's brawler — jammy blackberry, brambly spice, and 15% alcohol that hides behind the fruit. Built for ribs, brisket, and anything that came off a grill.
Why it works with Nachos
Zinfandel brings dark fruit and grip to Nachos — a meal-and-wine pairing built for slower evenings.
