White · Medium · Dry
Sauternes's quieter neighbor — slightly leaner, more delicate noble-rot sweet whites at often half the price. Same Semillon-Sauvignon blend, more restraint.
Why it works with Pates
Barsac White's body and acid balance Pates's flavor profile.
Red · Medium · Dry
Shorthand for Cabernet Sauvignon — full-bodied, structured red wine with notes of black currant, graphite, and cedar. The classic steakhouse choice.
Why it works with Pates
Cabernet's cherry-and-spice profile pairs gently with Pates.
The Rhône's most famous appellation — up to 13 grape varieties blended into something dense, warm, peppery, and unmistakable. Black cherry, garrigue, leather; built for braised lamb and aged cheese.

Chateauneuf-du-Pape and Pates make a workable pairing — taste, adjust, enjoy.
