Saint-Véran
Round, fruity Saint-Veran delicately accompanies airy quenelles in cream sauce.
Meursault
Meursault (Chardonnay on marl-limestone of Côte de Beaune between Volnay and Puligny, 12-18 months in new oak) — melted butter, toasted hazelnut, acacia honey and flint perfectly wed the richness of Nantua crayfish sauce on pike quenelles; buttery opulence doubling the cream-and-crayfish-butter sauce, hazelnut prolonging tomato in the carcass fumet, structure holding airy poached quenelles that puff during cooking.
Champagne Blanc de Blancs
On pike quenelles with Nantua crayfish sauce, a Côte des Blancs Blanc de Blancs brings fine bubbles that cut through the creamy crustacean sauce while chalky minerality echoes the pike's delicacy.
