White · Full · Dry

California's flagship white — rounder, riper, and oakier than the Old World original, with tropical fruit, butter, and vanilla. Sonoma Coast and Sta. Rita Hills bottlings are leaner; Napa stays plush.

Why it works with Chicken And Bell Pepper Fajitas

American Chardonnay's richness and oak match Chicken And Bell Pepper Fajitas's flavor depth — especially when there's butter or cream involved.

White · Light · Dry

California's take — riper than Sancerre, calmer than Marlborough, with grapefruit, melon, and a clean mineral finish. The everyday white that pairs with almost anything green or briny.

Why it works with Chicken And Bell Pepper Fajitas

American Sauvignon Blanc's brightness lifts Chicken And Bell Pepper Fajitas cleanly; the acid frames the meat without crowding it.

White · Medium · Dry

Chardonnay grown on Burgundy's chalkiest soils, almost never oaked. Lean, steely, oyster-shell minerality; a wine that tastes like a place. The wine for shellfish, full stop.

Why it works with Chicken And Bell Pepper Fajitas

French Chablis's stone fruit and gentle structure are tailor-made for roasted Chicken And Bell Pepper Fajitas.

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 Grilled Chicken Fajitas

Light red that flatters chicken without overwhelming — the all-purpose poultry pairing.

Shiraz

Interesting

Red · Full · Dry

Old-vine Shiraz from Barossa or McLaren Vale: dark, peppery, and unembarrassed about its size. Black plum, smoked meat, licorice, and a finish that lingers like the last embers of a grill.

Why it works with Chicken Fajita

Shiraz's structured tannins frame Chicken Fajita; reach for this when the dish has weight to match.
