Pairing Wine with Onion Soup
Tweet
When it comes to pairing wine with onion soup, Pinot Noir and Shiraz is a good call especially if you substitute the chicken stock with beef or veal stock. The bright cherry /raspberry/strawberry fruit picks up on the onion's sweetness while the soft granitic element of the terroir works beautifully with the soup's rustic nature. Gamay's inherent acidity cuts beautifully against the richness of this dish.
