Recommended wine: Albarino, Rose Wine, Sauvignon Blanc

Cajun can be paired with Albarino, rosé Wine, and Sauvignon Blanc. These low-tannin, lower alcohol wines will complement the heat in spicy cajun dishes, instead of making your mouth burn more. One wine you could try is Terras Gaudan O Rosal Albarino Blend. It has 4.6 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 23 dollars.
