Recommended wine: Riesling, Sparkling Wine, Zinfandel

Fried Green Tomato can be paired with Riesling, Sparkling Wine, and Zinfandel. 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. The Wagner Vineyards Riesling Ice with a 4.7 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 31 dollars per bottle.

Wagner Vineyards Riesling Ice

Gently pressing frozen grapes extracts only the juice while leaving water behind in the form of ice. The result is this luxurious, full-bodied dessert wine. Aromatic and zesty, each sip exploded with vibrant fruitiness & leaves behind a lively, lingering finish.
