Wine and grilled pork pairing
Grilled pork, king of the barbecue
Grilled pork is the simple pleasure of fire, crispiness and sharing. On the plancha or the barbecue, the meat takes on smoky flavours and a juicy texture that call for thirst-quenching, restrained wines. For a good pairing, avoid overly powerful reds and overly round whites: the idea is to keep freshness and fruit. Natural wines, often less marked by oak, go perfectly with grilled aromas and lightly spiced marinades. A light, glug-glug red or a dry, aromatic rosé will showcase the meat without overpowering it.
Perfect natural wines to go with grilled pork
A natural Gamay from Beaujolais is a must: fruity, lively and crunchy, it accompanies any grill with ease. For rosé lovers, an organic Languedoc or a natural Côtes-de-Provence offers lovely liveliness and a refreshing side that balances the richness of pork. If you prefer white, a dry Loire Chenin or a Corsican Vermentino can also be a pleasant surprise, especially with herb-marinated skewers. And for something unexpected, a País from Chile is wonderful thanks to its fruity, spicy character. Fresh and sincere, these natural wines bring just the right energy and drinkability for a simple, sunny and cheerful pairing.
