Gewurztraminer Vendanges Tardives
The canonical pairing for Peking duck: Gewurztraminer Vendanges Tardives (residual sugar and lifted acidity) answers the sweet-savory hoisin sauce and calms the lacquered duck — lychee extends the Asian character.
Pinot Noir Bourgogne
Burgundy Pinot Noir (young, fruity) brings delicacy and red fruit that respect the tender duck flesh without masking the hoisin — red alternative to Gewurztraminer.
Vouvray Moelleux
Vouvray Moelleux (Chenin Blanc with residual sugar) answers the sweet-savory Peking duck like Gewurztraminer — quince and baked apple echo the hoisin sauce.
