White · Medium · Dry
Volcanic Greek white from Santorini — laser acid, salt, and stone-fruit minerality. The defining wine for seafood, octopus, and Mediterranean grilled fare.
Works with Chicken Souvlaki · Chicken/pork Souvlaki
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.

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.

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.

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 Souvlaki
Light red that flatters chicken without overwhelming it — the all-purpose poultry pairing.
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/pork Souvlaki
Off-dry Riesling is the pork wine — stone fruit and acid with the meat's natural sweetness.
Red · Medium · 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 Souvlaki Greek Chicken Skewers
White=pinot Grigio Red=merlot gives Souvlaki Greek Chicken Skewers a structured partner — fruit and tannin without aggression.
