Wine with roast chicken
Medium-bodied whites and lighter reds complement roast poultry without overwhelming it.
Choosing wine with roast chicken
White wine or red with roast chicken?
Both are options. Chardonnay can suit butter or cream. Pinot Noir and Gamay offer lighter red choices when you want some freshness. Use the individual bottle notes to judge its weight.
Look at the rest of the plate
Gravy and mushrooms, a lemon dressing and a sweet glaze change the same roast chicken. Choose for the strongest sauce or side. A bottle’s oak, sweetness and body matter more than its grape name alone.
