What it pairs with

  • Salami and cornichons
    Natural light Regnié pairs with simple charcuterie in the Gang of Four tradition.
  • Fresh goat cheese on toast
    The fresh acidity and low tannin of Regnié pair unusually well with goat cheese.
  • Roast chicken wings
    Informal bistro pairing for a quaff-friendly Regnié.

History

Guy Breton expanded into Regnié to offer a lighter, easier-drinking natural wine alongside his Morgon. Regnié's sandy-granite soils give a more fragrant, less tannic result.
