Nicholas Bazik, chef, The Good King Tavern, Philadelphia
Chloé Grigri, general manager and wine director at Philadelphia’s The Good King Tavern, opened the restaurant with her French-born father in 2013. Alongside Chef Nicholas Bazik’s galette—a riff on a classic crustless French potato galette—Grigri recommends Clos du Tue-Boeuf’s 2015 Pineau de la Loire, the Loire Valley’s traditional name for Chenin Blanc. “This stony, ripe, funky-fresh Chenin complements the earthiness of root vegetables,” says Grigri. “While its austere soul and dancing acidity slice right through the sweetness of the beets, its slight pétillance adds a textural element to the otherwise smooth galette.”
