Red · Full · Dry
The benchmark for full-bodied red — structured, age-worthy, unapologetic. Black currant, graphite, and tobacco lead into firm tannins that demand protein on the plate. Decant young bottles; cellar the serious ones.

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 · Medium · Dry
Aromatic, racy, and shapeshifting — bone-dry in Alsace, off-dry on the Mosel, syrupy and ageless when late-harvested. The single most versatile wine for spicy food on earth.
Why it works with Feta (greek Goat Or Sheep Cheese)
Alsace Riesling's acid balances Feta (greek Goat Or Sheep Cheese)'s creaminess; the body holds up to the richness.
Red · Medium · Dry
California and Oregon's answer to Burgundy — riper, more upfront fruit than the French original, with cherry, raspberry, and gentle oak. Sonoma and Willamette set the standard.

American Pinot Noirs-milk Cheese And Honey Vinaigrette.

Pinot Noir (red) or Chardonnay (white) from the world's most expensive dirt. Translucent, perfumed, ethereal at the top of the hierarchy; honest and pleasant lower down. Drink slowly, with reverence.
Why it works with Feta (greek Goat Or Sheep Cheese)
Burgundy's mid-weight handles Feta (greek Goat Or Sheep Cheese) without overpowering it — neither pulls focus.
Red · Medium · Dry

Why it works with Rigatoni With Arugula And Sheeps Milk Cheese
Chianti is the pasta wine of choice — cherry, leather, cleansing acid.

Why it works with Sheep Cheese

Rosé · Light · Dry

Why it works with Arugula With Sheep Cheese
Dry rosé bridges vegetable dishes with versatility.
Red · Medium · Dry

Why it works with Rigatoni With Arugula And Sheeps Milk Cheese
Italy's table wine for Italy's table dish — Sangiovese acid meets tomato sauce naturally.
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.
