Description

Lemon Chicken pairs best with a fresh and fruity white wine with good acidity.

Unoaked Chardonnay is lemony and matches both the flavor and acidity.

Oaked Chardonnay does not work because it has gone through a process called Malolactic Fermentation, where the citrusy flavors transform into buttery ones.

Citrusy Light Rosé are a good match but stay away from red wines, they overpower the dish.

Avoid Tannic Reds and Oaky Whites.
