Equipment

Recommended wine: Cava, Shiraz, Grenache

Cava, Shiraz, and Grenache are my top picks for Chili. 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 Masia Puigmolto Can Xa Brut Cava. Reviewers quite like it with a 5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 14 dollars per bottle.
