Recommended wine: Gewurztraminer, Chenin Blanc, Riesling
Gewurztraminer, Chenin Blanc, and Riesling are my top picks for Asian. The best wine for Asian food depends on the cuisine and dish - of course - but these acidic whites pair with a number of traditional meals, spicy or not. You could try Cave de Ribeauville Collection Gewurztraminer. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 19 dollars per bottle.

Cave de Ribeauville Collection Gewurztraminer
This lemon yellow wine has an intensely aromatic bouquet, with notes of spice and lychee. On the palate, the mature acidity keeps the wine fresh, yet finessed. Pair with spicy food, soft cheeses, and pastries.Gewurztraminer is the most aromatic of Alsace wines. With its aromas of rose, lychee and spices, it embellishes our palate. Soft, it goes well with foie gras, a fruit-based dessert. Semi-dry, it accompanies spicy dishes or strong cheeses.
