Wine FAQs
What Are White Blends?
A white wine blend is a white wine produced from more than one grape variety. The most common white blends besides Champagne and other sparkling wines are Rhône blends using grapes including Grenache Blanc, Roussanne, Marsanne, Clairette, and Bordeaux blends using grapes including Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon, Muscadelle, Sauvignon Gris. White wine blends can be made with any combination of white wine grape varieties, and the resulting wine can range in flavor from light and fruity to rich and full-bodied.
The most famous white wine blend is Champagne, exclusive to the Champagne region of northern France. Usually, Chardonnay grapes are blended with Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, which are both red grapes, but the blend remains white as only the juice of the grapes is used and not the skins. There are some other combinations of Champagne, such as Franciacorta, which often combines Chardonnay and Pinot Bianco.
White wine blends are brimming with complexity and can offer more flavor than single-variety whites, producing rich, creamy wines that can be matured for years.

What Are Popular White Wine Blends?
Bordeaux Blanc
Bordeaux Blanc is a French blend famous for its aging ability and pristine quality. The wine is traditionally a blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Muscadelle and Sémillon, containing flavors of nectarine and sweet apple. Mature White Bordeaux offers a richer texture with baked fruits, chamomile, and honey notes. Bordeaux Blanc is best paired with a garlic-based, creamy risotto. Rhône Blends
Rhône white blends combine two traditional Rhône grape varieties, including, but not only, Marsanne, Viognier, Bourboulenc, Clairette, and Roussanne. The primary flavors of a Rhône white blend include apricot, orange zest, and Meyer lemon. Rhône blends are deliciously matched with fish and poultry dishes, especially accompanied by fruit-led sauces to complement the fruitiness of the wine.

Unlike single-variety whites, white wine blends offer fantastic aging potential and allow winemakers to produce consistently flavorful white wines.
What Temperature Should White Wine Blends Be Served?
Like with single-variety whites, white wine blends should be served chilled between 44-50° F. It’s best to take a bottle out of the refrigerator and leave it for around half an hour before serving.
