Recommended wine: Riesling, Dornfelder

German can be paired with Riesling and Dornfelder. Beer might seem like the natural pick for German food, but German riesling pairs wonderfully with seafood and schnitzel, while a German red like Dornfelder goes well with beef and game meat. The Naked Winery Tease, Riesling with a 4.8 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 20 dollars per bottle.
