Recommended wine: Riesling, Gewurztraminer, Rose Wine

Hot Dogs works really well with Riesling, Gewurztraminer, and rosé Wine. 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. One wine you could try is Weingut Willi Schaefer Graacher Domprobst Riesling Spatlese Number 5. It has 4.4 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 69 dollars.
