Pre-cooked chestnuts are softened in butter with onion, carrot and celery, deglazed with white wine and stock, and gently simmered with thyme. Pur\u00e9ed and finished with cream, the result is a velvety soup with a nutty, slightly sweet note. It is topped with crispy croutons, fried in rendered bacon until golden brown, and fresh thyme. This dish is easy enough for beginners to master, is quick to cook and can be prepared in advance. It\u2019s perfect for a cosy evening, as a starter for guests or as a main course served with bread. A white wine with a creamy texture, ripe fruit and delicate acidity rounds the dish off perfectly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-ideal-wine-pairing-elephant-hill-sea-viognier-hawke-s-bay-new-zealand\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ideal_wine_pairing_Elephant_Hill_Sea_Viognier_Hawkes_Bay_New_Zealand\"><\/span>Ideal wine pairing: <a href=\"https:\/\/cellardoor24.de\/en\/product\/2018-elephant-hill-sea-viognier-2\/\">Elephant Hill Sea Viognier (Hawke&#8217;s Bay, New Zealand)<\/a><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Delicate aromas of apricot and peach rise to the nose, accompanied by yellow apple, nectarine, spices, floral notes and subtle toasty aromas. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, juicy and creamy, with a finely balanced acidity and a long finish with a salty, mineral character. The grapes come from Te Awanga on the South Pacific coast; 40 per cent of the wine was fermented in oak barrels and 60 per cent in stainless-steel tanks, with part of the ageing taking place in new French oak barrels. With 13.5 per cent alcohol, 0.8 grams of residual sugar and 4.7 grams of acidity, it is dry. This pairs well with chestnut soup, as the apricot and peach notes complement the natural sweetness of the chestnuts, the creamy texture complements the cream, the toasted aromas echo the croutons, and the salty finish harmonises with the bacon. Cameron Douglas MS awarded it 95 points. Serve the wine at 8 to 10 degrees in a Chardonnay glass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-the-recipe\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_recipe\"><\/span>The recipe:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<div id=\"recipe\"><\/div><div id=\"wprm-recipe-container-27721\" class=\"wprm-recipe-container\" data-recipe-id=\"27721\" data-servings=\"2\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe wprm-recipe-template-cd24-recipe-template\"><div class=\"wprm-container-float-right\">\n    <div class=\"wprm-recipe-image wprm-block-image-rounded\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-width: 0px;border-style: solid;border-color: #666666;border-radius: 3px;\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" src=\"https:\/\/cellardoor24.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Cremige-Maronensuppe-mit-Speck-Croutons-und-Thymian-500x500.jpg\" class=\"attachment-250x250 size-250x250\" alt=\"Creamy chestnut soup with bacon croutons and thyme, served with a Viognier from Elephant Hill Sea, Te Awanga, Hawke\u2019s Bay, New Zealand\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cellardoor24.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Cremige-Maronensuppe-mit-Speck-Croutons-und-Thymian-500x500.jpg 500w, https:\/\/cellardoor24.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Cremige-Maronensuppe-mit-Speck-Croutons-und-Thymian-100x100.jpg 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wprm-recipe-name wprm-block-text-bold\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Creamy_chestnut_soup_with_bacon_croutons_thyme\"><\/span>Creamy chestnut soup with bacon croutons &#038; thyme<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"wprm-recipe-summary wprm-block-text-normal\"><span style=\"display: block;\">Saut\u00e9 the onion, carrot and celery in butter, add the pre-cooked chestnuts and cook briefly, then deglaze with white wine and vegetable stock. After cooking for 20 minutes with thyme and bay leaf, pur\u00e9e the soup until smooth and season to taste with cream and nutmeg. The croutons are fried in rendered bacon cubes until crispy and sprinkled over the soup along with fresh thyme. The recipe serves two, is easy enough for beginners, takes less than an hour to prepare and pairs perfectly with a white wine that has a creamy texture and delicate acidity.<\/span><\/div>\n<div
