Recommended wine: Riesling, Rose Wine, Gewurztraminer

Hot Dogs on the menu? Try pairing with Riesling, rosé Wine, and Gewurztraminer. A Gewürztraminer will be great with your basic New York style hot dog with mustard and sauerkraut. For a Chicago-style dog with sour pickles and hot peppers, you might opt for a crisp Riesling. No matter your toppings, a dry rosé almost always works. The Purple Star Ancient Lakes Riesling with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 12 dollars per bottle.

Purple Star Ancient Lakes Riesling

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.
