Recommended wine: Bordeaux, Champagne, White Burgundy

French works really well with Bordeaux, Champagne, and White Burgundy. 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. You could try Cru Monplaisir Bordeaux Superieur. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.7 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 19 dollars per bottle.
