Cabernet Sauvignon

Classic 7 dishes

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.

Pinot Noir

Classic 7 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.

White · Full · Dry

California's flagship white — rounder, riper, and oakier than the Old World original, with tropical fruit, butter, and vanilla. Sonoma Coast and Sta. Rita Hills bottlings are leaner; Napa stays plush.

Why it works with Beet Salad With Almond Butter And Gorgonzola Bomboloni

American Chardonnay's richness adds depth alongside Beet Salad With Almond Butter And Gorgonzola Bomboloni — especially with cream, butter, or oak influence in either.

White · Light · Off-dry

Washington and Finger Lakes Rieslings split the difference between Mosel delicacy and Alsatian heft — bright stone fruit, modest sweetness, lively acid. A natural with Thai, Indian, and anything off the spice rack.

Why it works with Warm Red Cabbage Salad With Roast Chicken And Gorgonzola Cheese

American Riesling's brightness lifts Warm Red Cabbage Salad With Roast Chicken And Gorgonzola Cheese cleanly; the acid frames the meat without crowding it.

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 Chicken Gorgonzola Salad

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

White · Medium · 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 Apple Gorgonzola Salad

Chenin Blanc Viognier's body and acid balance Apple Gorgonzola Salad's flavor profile.

Aromatic, racy, and shapeshifting — bone-dry in Alsace, off-dry on the Mosel, syrupy and ageless when late-harvested. The single most versatile wine for spicy food on earth.

Why it works with Pear And Gorgonzola Salad

Columbia Crest Two Vines Riesling's body and acid balance Pear And Gorgonzola Salad's flavor profile.

White · Medium · Dry

Dry German Riesling — increasingly the country's flagship style. Stone fruit, slate minerality, racing acid; pairs beautifully with everything from sushi to schnitzel.

Why it works with Warm Red Cabbage Salad With Roast Chicken And Gorgonzola Cheese
