wine

To go with the tarragon chicken, one must remember: it will be served with the wine that went into the sauce. However, one must never cook with expensive wines. This is therefore not the dish to impress with an exotic choice. You might want to try a white Mâcon-villages (Domaine Gaillard soft but with thyme nose, or even better, a François Bourdon which has a honey-stone aroma). Or else, maybe a dry white Claret.
In any case, it¹s better to stick with white after the soup, even if the choice for the aubergine was a red wine.
