Equipment

Recommended wine: Sauvignon Blanc, Sake, Riesling

Sauvignon Blanc, Sake, and Riesling are my top picks for Miso Soup. Saké is an obvious choice when it comes to Japanese food. If you want to stick to grape wine, though, you might opt for sauvignon blanc or riesling. The Peju Winery Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 22 dollars per bottle.

This Sauvignon Blanc jumps out of the glass—pineapple, passion fruit, grapefruit and lychee are all very prominent on the nose. The palate offers more lush fruit and bright acidity with notes of creamy lemon tart, guava and apricot with a fresh, clean finish.
