If you choose to make a \"homemade\" recipe, you may want to incorporate ingredients that differ from the traditional recipe. Although the best accompaniment is a dry white wine, you can also serve a red wine, as long as it's light and has melted tannins.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>With a light stuffing\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>If you choose to keep to the classic, it's best to choose fruity, aromatic wines without too much exuberance.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.comptoirdesmillesimes.com\/crozes-hermitage\/crozes-hermitage-blanc-2019-domaine-combier.html\">Crozes-Hermitage Blanc 2019 - Domaine Combier<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This wine is a beautiful blend of Marsanne at 80% complemented by 20% of Roussanne. It's an interesting alliance, as the power of the latter is calmed and framed by the minerality of the Marsanne, harmonizing to offer a fruity, round wine with a straightforward finish. A great classic for this domaine, a pioneer in organic farming.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.comptoirdesmillesimes.com\/domaine-combier\"><strong>&gt; Domaine Combier wines<\/strong><\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.comptoirdesmillesimes.com\/volnay\/volnay-1er-cru-2012-le-clos-des-chenes-dominique-laurent.html\">Volnay 1er Cru 2012 Le Clos des Ch\u00eanes - Dominique Laurent<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Volnay are Burgundy wines located in the C\u00f4tes de Beaune. They produce Pinot Noirs that are quite silky and fine when compared to more northerly wines such as Gevrey Chambertin and Vosnes Roman\u00e9e. Be that as it may, this bottle offers a lovely juice to pair with a bouch\u00e9e \u00e0 la reine. On the one hand, the wine is very complex, offering notes of wild berries mixed with mineral notes due to its provenance. And secondly, its vintage, already a little old, has softened its tannins. Perfect for our dish.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.comptoirdesmillesimes.com\/dominique-laurent\"><strong>&gt; Dominique Laurent from the estate<\/strong><\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>With a more powerful stuffing<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>If, however, more powerful ingredients are added to your recipe, you'll need to choose a more complex wine - not necessarily more powerful, but richer nonetheless.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.comptoirdesmillesimes.com\/puligny-montrachet\/puligny-montrachet-1er-cru-2014-les-champs-gain-bouchard-pere-et-fils.html\">Puligny Montrachet 1er Cru 2014 Les Champs Gain - Bouchard P\u00e8re et Fils<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Bouchard P\u00e8re et Fils is one of Burgundy's most reliable n\u00e9gociants. It owns several hectares of vineyards and carefully selects its partners. It's no coincidence that we're offering you a white wine of some age. Having benefited from one of Burgundy's finest terroirs, it acquires over the years in the cellar a slow evolution towards the tertiary aromas that characterize the appellation. On opening, you'll find floral notes, accompanied by a buttery nose and hints of white truffles. A complex nose, which you'll find again on the palate.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.comptoirdesmillesimes.com\/bouchard-pere-et-fils\"><strong>&gt; Bouchard P\u00e8re et Fils in stock\u00a0<\/strong><\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.comptoirdesmillesimes.com\/chateau-de-la-grille\/chateau-de-la-grille-2005.html\">Ch\u00e2teau de la Grille 2005 Chinon<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Once again, it's time to select a red wine with evolved aromas, to find similarities with a characterful preparation. Ch\u00e2teau de la Grille offers this possibility. Firstly, because the 2005 vintage is designed for ageing, and secondly, because the Cabernet used to make this Chinon comes from old vines, giving the grapes all the density they need to reach perfect ripeness. On the nose, the red fruit is still slightly present, but soon gives way to notes of undergrowth and humus. On the palate, the mid-palate is still rich but offers supple tannins. This wine would be perfect with a full-bodied, spicy dish.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.comptoirdesmillesimes.com\/chateau-de-la-grille\"><strong>&gt; Ch\u00e2teau de la Grille in stock<\/strong><\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We hope you've enjoyed this article.
