American Chardonnay

Interesting

White · Full · Dry

Why it works with Oven-roasted Dungeness Crab

American Chardonnay's richness pairs surprisingly well with Oven-roasted Dungeness Crab — especially when there's butter, cream, or oil involved.

Rosé Côtes-du-rhône

Classic

Why it works with Oven-roasted Dungeness Crab

Rosé Côtes-du-rhône's dry, fruity profile matches Oven-roasted Dungeness Crab without crowding it — a summer staple.
