Recommended wine: Gewurztraminer, Pinot Gris, Riesling

Caribbean can be paired with Gewurztraminer, Pinot Gris, and Riesling. You'll want to opt for wines with a bit of sweetness when dealing with spicy Caribbean dishes. Serve these wines chilled so they're even more refreshing. The Alsace Willm Cuvee Emile Willm Gewurztraminer with a 4.7 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 23 dollars per bottle.

Straw-colored with an aromatic nose both fruit forward (litchi) and floral (rose or violet). In the mouth the attack is supple with notes of mango. A robust wine, fat and powerful. The finish is smooth and silky with notes of roses and spices and the headiness of wallflowers.
