Wines For Roast Chicken
A golden roast chicken, a generous spoonful of gravy and everyone gathered around the table: sometimes Sunday lunch needs nothing more. Keep it simple, take your time and choose a bottle that makes this familiar favourite feel a little more special.
For a butter-and-herb roast, lightly oaked Chardonnay offers rounded texture and enough body for the golden skin, balanced by freshness that keeps each mouthful lively. Prefer red? Pinot Noir brings red-cherry fruit, gentle tannins and an earthy edge that works particularly well with mushrooms or pan gravy without overwhelming the chicken. For another easy-going option, choose a light, juicy Gamay with bright acidity: the aim is fruit and freshness rather than the heavy tannins that can mask the meat’s delicate flavour.
