Instructions
Cut cheese into 12 slices; cut each slice diagonally in half.
Top crackers with cheese, chili and onions.
Recommended wine: Cava, Grenache, Shiraz
Chili can be paired 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. The Totus Tuus Cava with a 4.3 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 18 dollars per bottle.
Totus Tuus Cava
Totus Tuus Cava shows bright aromas of peach, lemon, and orange zest, with a touch of licorice. The wine is concentrated, tactile and dense in the mouth, with a sappy, stony character to its citrus, pit fruit and anise flavors. Shows richness and vivacity in the mouth and the bright finish is long.
