Recommended wine: Cava, Grenache, Shiraz

Chili on the menu? Try pairing 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. You could try Segura Viudas Reserva Heredad Cava Brut. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.2 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 25 dollars per bottle.

Segura Viudas Reserva Heredad Cava Brut
The Segura Viudas Reserva Heredad Cava Brut has lightly smoky opening aromas with touches of biscuit and hints of honey and flower petals. The palate is excellent, fruity, and full of flavor, delivering a delightful sense of abundance. Blend: 67% Macabeo, 33% Parellada
