If there\u2019s a chicken in the room, you may want to angle the monitor away from them. That\u2019s because dry white burgundy wine<\/strong> makes their flesh so much more delicious, and buying a bottle is a great excuse to fire up the oven for some tasty plates of poultry.<\/p>\n

Why Dry White Burgundy Wine Pairs So Well with Chicken<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The main white grape to come from Burgundy is Chardonnay<\/a>. What\u2019s more, the most popular way of preparing chicken is to roast it, and that means the chicken\u2019s flavours are intensified in the oven. Happily, Chardonnay produces wines with tropical fruit flavours<\/a>. What\u2019s more Burgundian winemakers often develop these flavours by maturing the Chardonnay in oak, which changes the character considerably. It takes on creamy, buttery, toasty notes that pair well with roasted flavours, stock, and white sauces.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s more, the Burgundy region is very diverse. That means there\u2019s a wine to suit each part of the chicken, as for instance the Chablis area creates wine with less flavour, more acidity and lighter body. That\u2019s great for delicate breast meat. Meanwhile, Chardonnay from C\u00f4te d\u2019Or is full bodied and positively overflowing with flavour, which is great for thigh or wing meat.<\/p>\n
