Cajun on the menu? Try pairing with Albarino, rosé Wine, and Sauvignon Blanc. These low-tannin, lower alcohol wines will complement the heat in spicy cajun dishes, instead of making your mouth burn more. One wine you could try is Pazo de Galegos Albarino. It has 4.3 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 13 dollars.
