Sauvignon Blanc

Classic 4 dishes

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 · Medium · Dry

California Merlot, when made well — plummy, supple, with a touch of cocoa and earlier drinkability than its Bordeaux cousins. The unfairly maligned dinner-party red.

Why it works with Pizza With Roasted Garlic, Bell Peppers And Two Cheese

Italian-style reds like American Merlot are tomato sauce's natural partner.

Red · Medium · Dry

Australia's signature red — dense, spice-driven, peppery, often pushing 15% alcohol. Barossa makes it brawniest; McLaren Vale, smokier; Hunter, leaner. Built for the grill.

Australian Shiraz's bright acid is built for Pizza With Roasted Garlic, Bell Peppers And Two Cheese — cuts through cheese and tomato in equal measure.

Chardonnay

Classic

White · Medium · Dry

The most-planted white grape and the most chameleon-like. Crisp and steely from Chablis; rich, oaky, and tropical from California. Read the label, then match the style to the dish.

Why it works with Brie And Chicken "pizza" With Garlic Infused Olive Oil, Green Onions, Raisins, And Almonds

Chardonnay matches chicken's mild richness — oaked for roast, unoaked for poached.

Red · Medium · Dry

Sangiovese from Tuscany's historic heartland — denser fruit, longer finish, and a structure that rewards aging. The pizza wine, elevated.

The classic pizza wine: Chianti Classico's cherry-and-acid profile handles everything from margherita to meat lovers.

Rosé

Classic

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.
