Pinot Grigio cuts through the oil- or cream-based sauce commonly used in pasta primavera and livens the vegetables.
An herbaceous Sauvignon Blanc complements the vegetables while displaying its own distinctive personality.
Chinese Chicken Salad:
An off-dry Riesling with its soft and luscious fruit flavors provides a nice counterpoint to the Chinese flavors while marrying well with the chicken.
Viognier's exotic fruit flavors of peach, pears and apricot combined with its spicy notes is a perfect match for the exotic flavors of a Chinese chicken salad.
Sole or Flounder Sprinkled with Lemon and Dill:
The herbaceous character of Sauvignon Blanc makes it a good match with dill.
A Viognier, with its exotic spicy and somewhat anise flavor will marry nicely with dill.
Asparagus and Shaved Parmesan:
The distinctive herbal quality of Sauvignon Blanc meets the pungent flavors of the asparagus topped with this hard cheese.
Easter Ham Sandwich and Spicy Mustard:
The full ripe flavors of a fruity Riesling will balance the saltiness of the ham and complement the spicy mustard.
