Pinot Noir

Classic 11 dishes

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.

Chablis

Classic

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 Fennel Chicken

A medium white like Chablis matches Fennel Chicken's weight — neither too lean nor too plush.

Red · Medium · Dry

The blend of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre that fills every wine list in France for a reason — friendly, peppery, slightly rustic, made to wash down anything from grilled vegetables to lamb stew.

Why it works with Chicken Tagine With Fennel And Olives

Southern Rhône's peppery red is built for Moroccan lamb, dried fruit, and warming spice blends.

Grenache

Classic

Red · Medium · Dry

The grape that puts the warmth in southern French reds — strawberry, raspberry, white pepper, and a finish that's all sun and stones. The backbone of Châteauneuf-du-Pape and rosé from Provence.

Why it works with Chicken Tagine With Fennel And Olives

Grenache-based Rhône reds echo the warm spice and dried fruit of tagines.

Red Wine

Classic

Red · Medium · Dry

A catchall for red wine generally — covers everything from a $12 weeknight pour to first-growth Bordeaux. Match the bottle's weight to the food's weight and you'll rarely go wrong.

Why it works with Supreme Of Corn Fed Chicken With Fennel

Red Wine gives Supreme Of Corn Fed Chicken With Fennel a structured partner — fruit and tannin without aggression.

Sherry

Classic

Fortified · Medium · Dry

Andalusia's fortified white — runs from bone-dry Fino through nutty Amontillado to syrupy PX. The dry styles pair brilliantly with tapas; the sweet ones replace dessert entirely.

Why it works with Chicken Stew With Saffron And Fennel Bulb

Dry sherry with consommé and clear broths is the classical aperitif move.
