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. The Campo Viejo Cava Brut rosé with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 13 dollars per bottle.

Campo Viejo Cava Brut Rose

A bright sparkling pink color. Pleasant and powerful on the nose with a strong presence of ripe red berries. With has a rounded, pleasant feel in the mouth.
