Wine and grilled poultry pairing
The simple pleasure of grilled poultry
Grilled poultry tastes of summer meals, noisy tables and clinking glasses. Cooked on the barbecue, the plancha or in the oven, it develops slightly smoky, caramelised aromas that call for lively natural wines. For a good pairing, it’s best to avoid overly powerful reds and oaky whites. Favour suppleness and freshness: wines that match the crispy skin and tender flesh. A lively, fruity wine extends the pleasure of the grill without dominating or weighing down the meal. It’s a common-sense pairing: indulgence, drinkability and a touch of energy.
Perfect natural wines to go with grilled poultry
A natural Gamay from Beaujolais is the ideal partner: light, juicy and fruity, it goes with all grilled poultry. For even more freshness, a Burgundy Pinot Noir or a natural Côtes-de-Provence offers lovely liveliness and notes of crunchy red fruit. White wine lovers will prefer a Loire Chenin Blanc or a dry, vibrant Mâconnais Chardonnay, perfect with skewers or herb-marinated chicken. Living and digestible, these wines embody the joyful simplicity of natural wine: a pairing that is both tasty and easy-going, like a perfect summer evening.
