Chardonnay's body matches soft and bloomy cheeses with grace.

Plummy Malbec with grippy tannin pairs classically with red meat.
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.
