Chardonnay

Classic

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 Chicken Cordon Blu

Chardonnay's body and quiet oak echo Chicken Cordon Blu's richness; the acid resets the palate between bites.

Pinot Noir

Classic

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 Chicken Cordon Blu

The classic move with Chicken Cordon Blu: a low-tannin red like Pinot Noir that adds dimension without overpowering.

White · Medium · Dry

Italian for 'white' — usually a regional white wine name (Bianco di Custoza, Bianco d'Alcamo). Always made for the table.

Why it works with Chicken Cordon Blu

Reunite Bianco's stone fruit and gentle structure are tailor-made for roasted Chicken Cordon Blu.

Riesling

Classic

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 Chicken Cordon Blu

Riesling's brightness lifts Chicken Cordon Blu cleanly; the acid frames the meat without crowding it.

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 Chicken Cordon Blu
