Understanding Wine Preferences
Before diving into the selections, let’s briefly explore wine taste profiles. Generally, wines fall into categories based on their body, acidity, tannins, and flavour notes:
- Light and Crisp Whites – Refreshing with bright acidity and citrus notes, best enjoyed chilled.
- Rich and Buttery Whites – Fuller-bodied with a creamy texture and oak influence, often aged for complexity.
- Bold and Full-Bodied Reds – High tannins, deep fruit flavours, and strong structure, perfect for pairing with hearty dishes.
- Elegant and Complex Reds – Subtle, well-balanced wines with nuanced aromas, ideal for those who enjoy finesse over power.
Let’s explore eight hand-selected wines at VUE Bar & Grill that suit these taste profiles.
8 Exquisite Wines for Every Taste
For Lovers of Light and Crisp Whites
Jermann (Pinot Grigio, Italy)
A refreshing and lively Pinot Grigio with floral and citrusy notes, this wine is perfect for those who enjoy delicate yet vibrant flavours. It pairs beautifully with seafood, light salads, and soft cheeses. Originating from Italy’s Friuli-Venezia Giulia region, Jermann is known for crafting expressive white wines that highlight the terroir’s freshness.
Pairing Tip: Pinot Grigio’s crisp acidity perfectly matches fresh seafood like oysters and grilled prawns. It also complements light, citrus-based vinaigrettes.
Clos Henri (Sauvignon Blanc, New Zealand)
If you love a bright, zesty white wine, this Sauvignon Blanc offers high acidity with tropical fruit, gooseberry, and mineral-driven freshness. This pairs wonderfully with grilled vegetables, shellfish and goat cheese, ideal for those who enjoy crisp, fruit-forward wines. This Marlborough gem showcases New Zealand’s world-renowned Sauvignon Blanc style.
Pairing Tip: For an explosion of complementary flavours, try it with goat cheese crostinis, herbed chicken, or even a tangy ceviche.
For Fans of Rich, Buttery Whites
Domaine William Fèvre, Chablis (Chardonnay, France)
This Chardonnay from Chablis is elegant and well-structured, offering minerality with a subtle hint of oak. The wine’s balance of acidity and depth makes it a perfect match for grilled seafood, creamy pastas, and roasted chicken. Chablis wines are unique in their lack of heavy oak, allowing the pure expression of Chardonnay’s natural acidity.
Pairing Tip: For a luxurious dining experience, enjoy this Chablis with truffle risotto, buttered scallops, or creamy mushroom pasta.
Pazo de Señorans (Albariño, Spain)
A stunning Albariño with aromatic intensity, this wine offers stone fruit, floral and slight saline notes, making it an excellent choice for those who appreciate richer white wines. Enjoy it alongside grilled fish, ceviche, or citrus-based dishes. Albariño hails from Spain’s Rías Baixas region, known for its ocean-influenced climate that adds freshness and minerality to the wine.
Pairing Tip: This wine shines with sushi, citrus-infused seafood, or spicy Thai curry.
For Those Who Love Bold, Full-Bodied Reds
Susana Balbo, Crios (Malbec, Argentina)
A powerful Malbec with intense flavours of blackberries, plums and a hint of spice, this wine is a dream pairing for steaks, grilled lamb and smoky barbecue dishes. It is a must-try if you love bold reds with a smooth, velvety finish. Mendoza’s high-altitude vineyards bring out the depth and structure of this Malbec.
Pairing Tip: Malbec’s rich fruit and velvety tannins complement slow-cooked meats, grilled ribeye, or even dark chocolate desserts.
Yalumba, ‘The Cigar’ (Cabernet Sauvignon, Australia)
Rich, dark, and layered with blackcurrant, tobacco, and vanilla notes, this Cabernet Sauvignon is ideal for those who enjoy structured, tannin-driven reds. For the best effect, pair it with grilled beef, charred vegetables, or aged cheeses, and savour how the wine’s signature richness and depth are enhanced. Coonawarra, Australia, is famous for its terra rossa soils, which contribute to this exceptional character.
Pairing Tip: Enjoy it with prime rib, aged cheddar, or a hearty mushroom and truffle burger.
For Enthusiasts of Elegant and Complex Reds

A Pinot Noir known for its silky tannins, earthy undertones, and red berry flavours, this wine is perfect for those who appreciate subtle complexity over intensity.
