Recommended wine: Riesling, Gewurztraminer, Chenin Blanc

Egg Drop Soup works really well with Riesling, Gewurztraminer, and Chenin Blanc. 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. The Kruger-Rumpf Munsterer Rheinberg Kabinett Riesling with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 22 dollars per bottle.

Kruger-Rumpf Munsterer Rheinberg Kabinett Riesling

Rheinberg is the steepest of the three GG sites, on weathered quartzite and dusty loam. Sweet apples and yellow fruits are paramount here, though the minerally terroir notes give a firm foundation. These are wines of true charm, not merely winning ways.
