Explanation:

Question 11

Beaujolais Grand Cru areas include Brouilly, Morgon, Chiroubles, Chenas, etc. Medoc is in Bordeaux, Sauternes is a sweet wine region, so the correct option is the one with Brouilly, Morgon, Chiroubles and Chenas.

Cabernet Franc and Syrah are red grape varieties. Sauvignon Blanc and Chenin Blanc are white grape varieties. So the pair with white wine grapes is Sauvignon Blanc, Chenin Blanc.

Vintage Port is made only in the best years, bottled aged, and meant to cellar for 50+ years. Other options have incorrect details (e.g., not from white grapes, not made every year, not inexpensive blends).

Answer:

Brouilly, Morgon, Chiroubles and Chenas (the second option)
