All About White Wine
White Wine Terroirs and Grape Varieties
White wine comes in an impressive diversity thanks to the terroirs and grape varieties that shape it. Chardonnay, Chenin, Sauvignon Blanc, Aligoté, Jacquère, Riesling, Pinot Gris… each brings its own personality. In France, every region has its style: the taut, mineral wines of Chablis, the complex Chenins of the Loire, or the crystalline whites of Savoie. Elsewhere in Europe, Italy and Spain also offer whites of strong typicity, from Mediterranean Vermentino to Albariños from Galicia. Terroir is the key to this diversity: limestone, granite, or volcanic soils craft wines of infinite variety.
From Dry to Sweet White Wines
White wine is not limited to a single category. There are dry, crisp whites, perfect for lovers of freshness, but also rounder, fuller-bodied ones, ideal with generous cuisine. Some terroirs reveal their potential in great age-worthy wines, capable of evolving for decades. And of course, the magic of sweet and dessert wines, such as the great Sauternes or Chenins from Anjou, completes this richness. This diversity makes it possible to find a white wine suited to every moment and every gastronomic pairing.
What to Eat with White Wine?
White wine is without a doubt the most versatile at the table. A crisp, dry white pairs wonderfully with oysters, grilled fish, or Asian cuisine. Rounder, oak-aged cuvées are perfect with roast poultry or cooked cheeses like Comté. As for great sweet wines, they reveal their full splendor alongside foie gras or fruity desserts. Whether you’re looking for the simplicity of an easy-drinking wine or the complexity of a fine gastronomic bottle, white wine always has its place at the table.
Natural White Wine
More and more estates are producing their white wines with respect for nature. Organic farming, biodynamics, and natural winemaking allow grape varieties and terroirs to express themselves with purity. Passionate winemakers aim to craft sincere, vibrant cuvées full of energy, letting the wine speak without artifice. These approaches give rise to whites that are as close to nature as possible, appealing both for their freshness and their authenticity.
