Champagne

Adventurous

Sparkling · Light · Dry

Méthode champenoise from the most chalk-rich corner of France — fine bubbles, brioche, lemon zest, and a finish that goes on for half a minute. The wine for anything fried, salty, or special.

Why it works with Barbequed Pork Ribs

Champagne's bubbles and acid lift Barbequed Pork Ribs — versatile and palate-cleansing.

Pinot Noir

Interesting

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.

Why it works with Barbeque Pork Ribs

Surprising pairing: Pinot Noir's lift makes Barbeque Pork Ribs feel less heavy. Serve slightly chilled.

Riesling

Adventurous

White · Light · Off-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 Barbequed Pork Ribs

Riesling's bright acid lifts Barbequed Pork Ribs cleanly — the lean white strategy.

Sauvignon Blanc

Adventurous

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 Barbeque Pork Ribs

Sauvignon Blanc's bright acid lifts Barbeque Pork Ribs cleanly — the lean white strategy.
