Recommended wine: Cava, Grenache, Shiraz

Cava, Grenache, and Shiraz are my top picks for Chili. These juicy reds don't have too much tannin (important for spicy foods), but a sparkling wine like cava can tame the heat even better. One wine you could try is Bodegas Naveran Brut Nature Cava. It has 4.5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 16 dollars.

Cavas are very versatile as an aperitif before the meal and, of course, to enjoy during the meal. In addition to all manner of fried foods (try with fried smelts or calamari!), this Naveran Brut Nature will pair with soft cheeses, fresh fruit, white meats (pork and chicken) and even richly flavored red meats. This Cava is also great for sipping on its own.Blend: 40% Macabeo, 30% Parellada, 20% Chardonnay, 10% Xarello
