Recommended wine: Riesling, Sparkling Wine, Zinfandel

Southern works really well 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. You could try Schlossgut Diel Nahe Riesling Kabinett. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.2 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 23 dollars per bottle.
