Recommended wine: Chenin Blanc, Gewurztraminer, Riesling

Chenin Blanc, Gewurztraminer, and Riesling are my top picks for Asian. The best wine for Asian food depends on the cuisine and dish - of course - but these acidic whites pair with a number of traditional meals, spicy or not. You could try Birichino Jurassic Park Vineyard Old Vines Chenin Blanc. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 26 dollars per bottle.
