Recommended wine: Gewurztraminer, Chenin Blanc, Riesling

Asian works really well with Gewurztraminer, Chenin Blanc, 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 Domaine Weinbach Cuvee Theo Gewurztraminer. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 29 dollars per bottle.
