Recommended wine: Dornfelder, Riesling

Dornfelder and Riesling are great choices for German. 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. You could try Heinz Eifel Shine Dornfelder Sweet Red. Reviewers quite like it with a 3.5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 12 dollars per bottle.
