What to drink with autumn dishes

Hot starters:

To get your meal off to a good start, a small pumpkin velouté, an egg casserole or warm goat's cheese toast will delight your taste buds! These appetizers can be accompanied by a white wine such as Puilly Fuissé, which blends notes of minerality, white fruit and almonds.

Dishes in sauce:

Autumn also means the return of good, warm dishes. A must: boeuf bourguignon, blanquette de veau or coq au vin! Now you're feeling the heat! For blanquette, there's nothing better than a white wine with a hint of acidity to accompany the fatty meat and cream. Choose a Loire Valley wine: Montlouis, Chinon, Vouvray... For boeuf bourguignon... no surprise, a Burgundy wine will awaken your senses! Let yourself be tempted by a red from the Hautes Côtes de Beaune! As for coq au vin, a Rhône wine with its notes of black fruits and spices is sure to please.

And what about desserts?

The famous and unmissable fresh-from-the-oven apple crumbles, a walnut brownie or a fruit tart will round off your meal in style! For crumbles, Alsace whites, with their floral and spicy notes, are the perfect match! For red fruit desserts, a demi-sec or rosé champagne is the perfect accompaniment. And for chocolate desserts, a glass of port will match the bitterness of this one!
