Burgundy's minor white grape — lean, citrusy, mineral, made for crémant and Kir cocktails but seriously good on its own. Bouzeron makes the reference bottlings.
Why it works with Thai Dishes
Aligoté and Thai Dishes make a workable pairing — taste, adjust, enjoy.
Sparkling · Light · Dry
Champagne made from Chardonnay only — leaner, more lemony, more chalk-driven than blended Champagne. The aperitif Champagne.
Why it works with Thai Dishes
Champagne Blanc De Blancs's bubbles and acid lift Thai Dishes — versatile and palate-cleansing.
White · Medium · Off-dry
The Loire's most versatile grape — bone-dry and steely from Savennières, honeyed and ageless from Vouvray. Naturally high acid keeps every style food-friendly.
Why it works with Thai Dishes
Chenin Blanc's body and acid balance Thai Dishes's flavor profile.
France's most-planted white grape (largely for distilling Armagnac), occasionally bottled solo — light, lemony, fresh. The everyday Gascon white.
Why it works with Thai Dishes
Colombard and Thai Dishes make a workable pairing — taste, adjust, enjoy.
White · Medium · Off-dry
Lychee, rose petal, and a touch of ginger; medium-bodied, low-acid, and unmistakable. The wine for any cuisine where the spice cabinet did the heavy lifting.
Why it works with Thai Dishes
Gewurztraminer's body and acid balance Thai Dishes's flavor profile.
White · Light · Dry
Italy's everyday white — light, lemony, neutral by design. Pleasant with anything; profound with very little. The best Friuli bottles are quietly excellent.
Why it works with Thai Dishes
Pinot Grigio's bright acid lifts Thai Dishes cleanly — the lean white strategy.
White · Medium · Off-dry
Same grape as Pinot Grigio, different attitude — the Alsatian style is richer, fuller, faintly honeyed, with the structure to handle pork, smoked fish, and Asian aromatics.
Why it works with Thai Dishes
Pinot Gris's body and acid balance Thai Dishes's flavor profile.
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 Thai Dishes
Riesling Off-dry's body and acid balance Thai Dishes's flavor profile.
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.
Why it works with Thai Dishes
Sauvignon Blanc's bright acid lifts Thai Dishes cleanly — the lean white strategy.
White · Medium · Dry
The white grape of the Northern Rhône — full-bodied, peachy, faintly perfumed, with the texture of a quiet Chardonnay. Pairs with anything saffron-tinged or apricot-glazed.

Viognier's body and acid balance Thai Dishes's flavor profile.
