Chardonnay, the world's most ubiquitous grape, planted the world over! It is easily the most popular white wine variety. The wines selected here offer good balance and the ability to be enjoyed with fresh Bahamian ocean delicacies, as well as highlight the style in which they are prepared.
Pouilly-Fuisse is the best white wine of the Macon region of France. This wine can be chardonnay at it's best. It goes well with egg dishes, fish and lobster.
Another white wine grape that can scan many different flavor profiles according to where it was grown (climate) and how it was made (oak aging). The French identify the place name as label title. For example, Sancerre as opposed to the grape name, Sauvignon Blanc. The natural acidity from the grape makes these wines very versatile with a wide variety of foods from shellfish to salads.
Pinot Grigio has a fat, spicy character with a honeyed flavor. This wine will go well with many pasta and fish dishes.
Cabernet Sauvignon has become the world's most traveled red wine. The cabernet grape gives flavors that range from ripe blackcurrants, plums and raisins, mint & sweet earth.
Merlot is the softest, fruitiest and easy drinking of the Bordeaux grapes, often berry and plum in flavors and rarely making very tannic wines. The soft, lush fruit of many Merlots makes them ideal for savory foods. Try it with beef.
Although difficult to grow, Pinot Noir has continued to find success away from its famous home in Burgundy. Pinots are well suited to complex meat dishes. The lighter styles go well with many fresh fish, particularly off the grill. It is also one of the best red wines with cheese.
Syrah/Shiraz is the fine, dark red grape of the Northern Rhone. These grapes make rich flavorful wines full of raspberry fruit. They pair well with roast turkey or pork, and Cheshire and Gouda cheeses.
