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 Chili Mac

Sauvignon Blanc's acid handles the heat of Chili Mac; off-dry styles tame chiles especially well.

Zinfandel

Adventurous

Red · Full · Dry

California's brawler — jammy blackberry, brambly spice, and 15% alcohol that hides behind the fruit. Built for ribs, brisket, and anything that came off a grill.

Why it works with Chili Mac

Zinfandel brings dark fruit and grip to Chili Mac — a meal-and-wine pairing built for slower evenings.
