Recommended wine: Chenin Blanc, Gewurztraminer, Riesling

Asian works really well with Chenin Blanc, Gewurztraminer, and Riesling. The best wine for Asian food depends on the cuisine and dish - of course - but these acidic whites pair with a number of traditional meals, spicy or not. You could try Beaumont Hope Marguerite Chenin Blanc. Reviewers quite like it with a 5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 35 dollars per bottle.
