French Cuisine

Dishes: Grilled salmon fillet, smoked pork belly, chicken stew, potato gratin, French toast, mushroom galette, quiche (French tart), ratatouille.

Dishes are simple to make, but the results are fantastic and so rewarding. Most of the dishes are thick, rich, and creamy.

When it comes to something simple (but delicious), like French toast, gratin go with a dry medium bodied but well balanced white. 

Balanced wine is when alcohol, acidity, tannin, sweetness and fruit concentration are working in harmony.
