Perfect Pairing
Pétanque was created to enhance Atelier Crenn’s pescatarian menu, with an acid profile that stands up to classic French cuisine—Dominique was raised in Brittany, a region known for butter, shellfish and galettes. Crisp minerality echoes the salinity of Breton oysters, while herbal notes provide a foil for creamy Californian spot prawns, a stateside treat. We’ve been known to pour Pétanque alongside more modest fare too—try French fries and mayo, and thank us later.
Enjoy With: Smoked scallops with crispy capers, caviar, oozing Crémeux de Bourgogne, or anything on Chef Crenn's menu.
