Recommended wine: Riesling, Sparkling Wine, Zinfandel

Riesling, Sparkling Wine, and Zinfandel are great choices for Southern. In general, there are a few rules that will help you pair wine with southern food. Food-friendly riesling or sparkling white wine will work with many fried foods, while zinfandel is great with barbecued fare. One wine you could try is Domaine LeSeurre Dry Cuvee Classique Riesling. It has 4.8 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 23 dollars.

Domaine LeSeurre Dry Cuvee Classique Riesling

Domaine LeSeurre's Riesling juice is fermented 100% in stainless tanks. While on its lees, the wine is hand-stirred (bâtonnage sur lies) once per month, for 11 months. This process develops an additional complexity of flavors and aromas. This dry Riesling has scents of citrus blossoms and lemon zest, layered on the palate with hints of pear.This Riesling pairs well with trout amandine, raw oysters and is a lovely aperitif.
