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 Thai Food

Chablis's body and acid balance Thai Food's flavor profile.

France's most-planted white grape (largely for distilling Armagnac), occasionally bottled solo — light, lemony, fresh. The everyday Gascon white.

Colombard and Thai Food make a workable pairing — taste, adjust, enjoy.

Red · Medium · Dry

Cabernet's softer sibling — plum, black cherry, and a whisper of chocolate, framed by rounder tannins and earlier drinkability. The wine that built Pomerol and the one to reach for when Cabernet feels like overkill.

Why it works with Thai Food

Merlot's cherry-and-spice profile pairs gently with Thai Food.

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.

Why it works with Thai Food

Sauvignon Blanc's bright acid lifts Thai Food cleanly — the lean white strategy.

Hungary's historic dessert wine — noble-rot Furmint, apricot, marmalade, ginger. The Aszú designation marks the noble-rot bottlings.

Why it works with Thai Food

Tokàji and Thai Food make a workable pairing — taste, adjust, enjoy.

Straw wine — grapes dried on straw mats before pressing, concentrating the sugars into syrup. Made in Jura and the Rhône; rare and remarkable.

Vin de Paille and Thai Food make a workable pairing — taste, adjust, enjoy.
