Recommended wine: Gewurztraminer, Pinot Gris, Riesling

Gewurztraminer, Pinot Gris, and Riesling are my top picks for Caribbean. 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 Cave de Ribeauville Collection Gewurztraminer with a 4.7 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 19 dollars per bottle.
