Recommended wine: Bordeaux, Champagne, White Burgundy

Bordeaux, Champagne, and White Burgundy are great choices for French. French wine is just as diverse as French food, but you rarely go wrong with champagne. If your meal calls for a white wine, you might also try a white burgundy. For a red, try a red bordeaux blend. The Chateau Crusquet Sabourin Grande Reserve Blaye Cotes de Bordeaux with a 4.3 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 16 dollars per bottle.

Chateau Crusquet Sabourin Grande Reserve Blaye Cotes de Bordeaux

Deep ruby-purple in color, the nose opens to a fantastic display of black raspberry and warm plum fruitiness, with accents of savory leather, tobacco leaf, allspice, cedar, and crushed violet. The palate is broad with black fruit character that melds seamlessly into lingering spice box and fresh herbal hints. Long and well-constructed, this is a great bottle of Bordeaux for early drinking.Blend: 80% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon
