American Chardonnay

Adventurous

White · Full · Dry

California's flagship white — rounder, riper, and oakier than the Old World original, with tropical fruit, butter, and vanilla. Sonoma Coast and Sta. Rita Hills bottlings are leaner; Napa stays plush.

Why it works with Potato, Bacon, And Gruyère Soup

American Chardonnay's weight handles Potato, Bacon, And Gruyère Soup better than you'd expect; try it for white-meat cuts especially.

American Merlot

Classic

Red · Medium · Dry

California Merlot, when made well — plummy, supple, with a touch of cocoa and earlier drinkability than its Bordeaux cousins. The unfairly maligned dinner-party red.

Why it works with Potato, Bacon, And Gruyère Soup

American Merlot gives Potato, Bacon, And Gruyère Soup a savory partner — cherry, leather, and a touch of acid.

Beaujolais

Interesting

Red · Light · Dry

Gamay-based reds from southern Burgundy — light, fruity, food-friendly. The serious Cru bottlings (Morgon, Fleurie, Moulin-à-Vent) drink like Pinot Noir at half the price.

Why it works with Potato, Bacon, And Gruyère Soup

Surprising pairing: Beaujolais's lift makes Potato, Bacon, And Gruyère Soup feel less heavy. Serve slightly chilled.
