Recommended wine: Cava, Grenache, Shiraz
Cava, Grenache, and Shiraz are great choices for Chili. These juicy reds don't have too much tannin (important for spicy foods), but a sparkling wine like cava can tame the heat even better. You could try Caves Roger Goulart Gran Reserva Cava. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.7 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 23 dollars per bottle.

The wines employed for cava production are chosen with great care and are subject to a minimum ageing period of four years. After 24 months – and once a year – the bottles in ageing are subject to the déplacé technique, which consists of shaking the bottles in order to homogenize the yeast and obtain a greater extraction in terms of their aromatic and taste potential, over their more than 48 months of ageing. The result is a delicate cava with a pale yellow coloring, light golden tones, and an incredible sparkle, as well as interesting, complex and powerful bouquets.Blend: 60% Xare-lo, 20% Macabeo and 20% Parellada
