Recommended wine: Dornfelder, Riesling

Dornfelder and Riesling are my top picks for German. Beer might seem like the natural pick for German food, but German riesling pairs wonderfully with seafood and schnitzel, while a German red like Dornfelder goes well with beef and game meat. One wine you could try is Heinz Eifel Shine Dornfelder Sweet Red. It has 3.5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 12 dollars.
