Recommended wine: Gewurztraminer, Pinot Gris, Riesling
Caribbean works really well with Gewurztraminer, Pinot Gris, and Riesling. You'll want to opt for wines with a bit of sweetness when dealing with spicy Caribbean dishes. Serve these wines chilled so they're even more refreshing. The Lucien Albrecht Reserve Gewurztraminer with a 4.2 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 15 dollars per bottle.
Lucien Albrecht Reserve Gewurztraminer
The Gewurztraminer Reserve is made from selected (prime) grapes. Bursting with the aroma of honey, red roses and tropical fruit, yet dryand rich on the palate, this wine is lovely to drink on a warm afternoon by itself or paired in a meal with rich, creamy poultry dishes. It releasesboth to the mouth and the nose litchi, rose petal and spice aroma.
