White · Medium · Dry

Burgundy's minor white grape — lean, citrusy, mineral, made for crémant and Kir cocktails but seriously good on its own. Bouzeron makes the reference bottlings.

Italian table wine, broadly — a regional blend or single-varietal wine made for everyday drinking. Reliable food-friendliness; rewards bread and olive oil alongside.

White · Medium · Dry

A medium-bodied white. Light on the palate, easy to enjoy, and accommodating to most lighter dishes.

White · Medium · Dry

Catchall for wines from France's Rhône Valley — bold reds from the south (Grenache/Syrah/Mourvèdre) and singular Syrahs and Viogniers from the north. Always food-friendly, always sun-tinged.
