From Hungary to Milan and Tokyo, discover the fascinating journey of the humble schnitzel, its shared culinary history, and why a rare volcanic Chardonnay 809 from France's Auvergne is the perfect pairing for crispy breaded cutlets and braised sauerkraut.

Gödöllő-style chicken is a beloved Hungarian classic, featuring juicy roasted chicken filled with a rich stuffing of mushrooms, chicken liver, bacon, herbs, and bread. We paired ours with a Premier Cru Pouilly-Fuissé from Burgundy, whose freshness, minerality, and elegant Chardonnay character beautifully complemented the dish's rich, savoury flavours.

Jambon persillé in aspic is one of Burgundy’s understated gems, rustic, rich, and surprisingly elegant. Chablis brings the perfect contrast, with crisp acidity, citrus, and saline minerality cutting through the pork while lifting its fresh herbal notes.
