Recommended wine: Cava, Grenache, Shiraz
Chili works really well with Cava, Grenache, and Shiraz. These juicy reds don't have too much tannin (important for spicy foods), but a sparkling wine like cava can tame the heat even better. The Caves Roger Goulart Gran Reserva Cava with a 4.7 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 23 dollars per bottle.
Caves Roger Goulart Gran Reserva Cava
The wines employed for cava production are chosen with great care and are subject to a minimum ageing period of four years. After 24 months – and once a year – the bottles in ageing are subject to the déplacé technique, which consists of shaking the bottles in order to homogenize the yeast and obtain a greater extraction in terms of their aromatic and taste potential, over their more than 48 months of ageing. The result is a delicate cava with a pale yellow coloring, light golden tones, and an incredible sparkle, as well as interesting, complex and powerful bouquets.Blend: 60% Xare-lo, 20% Macabeo and 20% Parellada
