Red · Full · Dry

The benchmark for full-bodied red — structured, age-worthy, unapologetic. Black currant, graphite, and tobacco lead into firm tannins that demand protein on the plate. Decant young bottles; cellar the serious ones.

Why it works with Parma Ham And Lemon Sole Roulades

Cabernet's tannin grips red-meat protein and cuts through fat.

White · Medium · Off-dry

The Loire's most versatile grape — bone-dry and steely from Savennières, honeyed and ageless from Vouvray. Naturally high acid keeps every style food-friendly.

Why it works with Sole Fillets With Lemon Butter Sauce

Chenin Blanc's mid-weight handles Sole Fillets With Lemon Butter Sauce well; the acid keeps the pairing crisp without weighing it down.

Chianti

Classic

Red · Medium · Dry

Tuscany's everyday red, made from Sangiovese — cherry, leather, and a brisk acidity that makes tomato-based dishes sing. The Classico designation marks the historic heartland and a step up in quality.

Why it works with Broiled Lemon Sole With White Bean Prosciutto Risotto, Grilled Romaine And Cauliflower Puree

Chianti is the Italian table wine for a reason — cherry, leather, and cleansing acid.

Malbec

Classic

Red · Full · Dry

Argentina's signature grape: deep purple, plummy, and remarkably smooth for its weight. Soft tannins and a touch of cocoa make it the dinner-party Cabernet alternative — and far easier on the wallet.

Why it works with Parma Ham And Lemon Sole Roulades

Plummy Malbec with grippy tannin pairs classically with red meat.

Prosecco

Classic

Sparkling · Light · Off-dry

Veneto's everyday sparkler — Glera grape, charmat method, frothier and fruitier than Champagne. Pear, white flowers, easy fun. Made for aperitivo.

Why it works with Broiled Lemon Sole With White Bean Prosciutto Risotto, Grilled Romaine And Cauliflower Puree

Off-dry bubbles work from antipasti through to dessert — Italy's all-purpose sparkler.

Sancerre

Classic

White · Light · Dry

Sauvignon Blanc from the upper Loire, grown on flint and chalk. Citrus, smoke, and a mineral finish that hints at struck stone. The refined antithesis of New Zealand's tropical SBs.

Why it works with Lemon Sole

Sancerre's racing acid and lean body lift Lemon Sole without competing — the textbook seafood-and-white-wine logic.
