Recommended wine: Riesling, Gewurztraminer, Chenin Blanc

Riesling, Gewurztraminer, and Chenin Blanc 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. One wine you could try is Schloss Vollrads Riesling QbA. It has 4.4 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 17 dollars.

Schloss Vollrads Riesling QbA

This Riesling has an exotic bouquet of mango, peach and ripe apple and has noticeable, natural residual sugar.You can enjoy this wine to accompany food, with friends, or simply by yourself to unwind.This wine is an ideal accompaniment to Asian spices such as curry, ginger, or lemon grass. It has perfect balance of acidity and natural sweetness and has the right characteristics to stand up to such exciting dishes.
