Chablis

Classic

White · Medium · Dry

Chardonnay grown on Burgundy's chalkiest soils, almost never oaked. Lean, steely, oyster-shell minerality; a wine that tastes like a place. The wine for shellfish, full stop.

Why it works with Poached Salmon Or Slightly Roasted

Chablis's stone fruit and quiet structure flatter Poached Salmon Or Slightly Roasted's natural sweetness.

Chinon Red

Adventurous

Red · Medium · Dry

Loire Cabernet Franc at its most refined — pencil-shavings, raspberry, and a flint-stone finish. The bistro red of choice; equally good chilled in summer.

Why it works with Poached Salmon Or Slightly Roasted

Chinon Red's mid-weight flatters Poached Salmon Or Slightly Roasted without taking over — the everyday red strategy.

White · Medium · Dry

Northern Rhône Viognier at its grandest — apricot, honeysuckle, ginger, with a richness that surprises everyone. The wine to drink alongside soft cheese and a sunset.

Condrieu White's stone fruit and quiet structure flatter Poached Salmon Or Slightly Roasted's natural sweetness.

White · Medium · Dry

Sauvignon Blanc from the upper Loire, grown on flint and chalk. Citrus, smoke, and a mineral finish that hints at struck stone. The refined antithesis of New Zealand's tropical SBs.
