Equipment

Recommended wine: Riesling, Sparkling Wine, Zinfandel

Riesling, Sparkling Wine, and Zinfandel are my top picks for Southern. In general, there are a few rules that will help you pair wine with southern food. Food-friendly riesling or sparkling white wine will work with many fried foods, while zinfandel is great with barbecued fare. You could try Purple Star Ancient Lakes Riesling. Reviewers quite like it with a 5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 12 dollars per bottle.

Aromas of apricot and white peaches carry through the sweet mid palate with flavors of dried apricot, stone fruits and honey. Balanced on the finish with natural acidity.
