What are White Wine Varietals?

White wine varietals refer to wines made from specific types of white grapes, each contributing its own distinct flavour profile. White wines are typically made by fermenting the juice of grapes without the skins, resulting in lighter, more delicate flavours compared to red wines. However, white wines can still range from light and crisp to rich and creamy, depending on the grape variety and winemaking methods used.

Common varietals include Sauvignon Blanc, known for its vibrant citrus and herbal notes; Chardonnay, a versatile grape that can range from buttery and oaky to crisp and refreshing; and Riesling, which can be enjoyed in both dry and sweet styles. With such a wide range of varietals available, there's a white wine to complement any meal or occasion.

Popular White Wine Varietals

• Chardonnay: One of the most popular white wine grapes, Chardonnay can range from crisp and minerally in cool climates to rich and buttery when aged in oak. It is versatile and pairs well with a wide range of foods, from seafood to roasted chicken.
• Sauvignon Blanc: A zesty and aromatic varietal, Sauvignon Blanc is known for its high acidity and fresh flavours of citrus, green apple, and herbs. It’s a perfect match for seafood, salads, and goat cheese.
• Riesling: Riesling is a highly aromatic grape that can produce wines ranging from bone-dry to lusciously sweet. Known for its high acidity and vibrant flavours of lime, peach, and apricot, Riesling is a versatile varietal that pairs well with spicy foods and rich dishes.
• Pinot Grigio (Pinot Gris): A light and crisp wine with flavours of pear, apple, and lemon, Pinot Grigio is a popular choice for warm-weather sipping. It pairs beautifully with light dishes like salads, seafood, and pasta with cream sauce.
• Viognier: A full-bodied white wine with rich, floral aromas and flavours of peach, apricot, and honeysuckle. Viognier is a great alternative to Chardonnay and pairs well with grilled seafood, pork, and creamy dishes.
• Gewürztraminer: A highly aromatic varietal with intense floral and spice notes. Gewürztraminer is often enjoyed with exotic or spicy foods, such as Indian or Thai cuisine, and pairs beautifully with cheeses and charcuterie.

How to Serve White Wine

Serving white wine at the right temperature and in the right glassware can enhance its flavours and aromas. Here are some tips for serving white wine:

• Temperature: Most white wines are best served chilled, but not too cold. Light-bodied whites like Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Grigio should be served between 7–10°C, while fuller-bodied whites like Chardonnay and Viognier are best served slightly warmer, around 10–13°C.
• Glassware: Use a standard white wine glass with a narrower bowl to help concentrate the aromas. For aromatic varietals like Riesling and Gewürztraminer, a glass with a slightly wider bowl can help enhance the wine’s bouquet.
• Food Pairings: White wines are versatile when it comes to food pairings. Lighter whites like Sauvignon Blanc pair well with salads, seafood, and goat cheese, while richer whites like Chardonnay and Viognier complement dishes like roasted chicken, creamy pasta, and grilled seafood.
