Pepper chicken. One pan. Rich and completely tender.

Quick answer

Pour a cold, unoaked Chardonnay with pepper chicken. I reach for Lueria's 2023: bone dry with high acidity, it cuts through the rich chicken and broth and resets your palate for the next bite.

Your Shabbat table demands a bold main. Keep it elegant.

The perfect pairing? A cold Lueria Unoaked Chardonnay.
