Wine and kipfilet pairings

Chicken fillet can be combined with both a light red and a fuller white wine. It mainly depends on how you prepare the chicken fillet.

If you are grilling the chicken, a light red wine such as a red Pinot Noir or a Beaujolais or even a not too heavy Syrah is a good choice.

Baked or boiled chicken breast goes better with a white wine, choose one that is soft and round. Chicken breast in a creamy sauce combines with a full Chardonnay, and it may well have had some wood aging.

Chicken breast processed in other dishes such as an Asian curry is a whole story. For such combinations, search for Asian dishes.
