White · Medium · Dry
California and Pacific Northwest Gewürztraminer — lychee, rose petal, ginger, made riper and fuller than Alsace. The American spicy-food companion.

Sparkling · Light · Dry
California's méthode-traditionnelle sparkling wines — Chardonnay/Pinot Noir-based, brioche-and-citrus, often grown in cool coastal regions. Champagne quality at friendlier prices.
Why it works with Fettuccine With Sweet Pepper-cayenne Sauce
American Sparkling's bubbles and acid lift Fettuccine With Sweet Pepper-cayenne Sauce — versatile and palate-cleansing.
Sparkling · Light · Dry
Spain's traditional-method sparkling, made in Catalunya. Crisper and chalkier than Prosecco; remarkable value next to Champagne. Pair with jamón, tortilla, and grilled vegetables.
Why it works with Cayenne Pepper
Bubbles refresh any palate — the default sparkling backup for unfamiliar territory.
White · Medium · Dry
The most-planted white grape and the most chameleon-like. Crisp and steely from Chablis; rich, oaky, and tropical from California. Read the label, then match the style to the dish.
Why it works with Cayenne Pepper
An all-purpose white — body, fruit, and acid in balance for varied food.
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 Cayenne Pepper
A versatile light red — works across more dishes than any other red.
Rosé · Light · Dry
Provence's gift to summer — dry, pale, faintly strawberry-and-citrus, with low alcohol and crisp acid. Made to drink cold, with food, in the shade.
Why it works with Cayenne Pepper
Dry rosé is the most food-flexible bottle in the cellar.
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.
Why it works with Fettuccine With Sweet Pepper-cayenne Sauce
White Sancerre's body and acid handle Fettuccine With Sweet Pepper-cayenne Sauce well — especially with cream- or seafood-based sauces.
