Recommended wine: Albarino, Rose Wine, Sauvignon Blanc

Cajun works really well 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. The The Fableist Albarino with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 19 dollars per bottle.

Bright peaches with a lemon-lime twist will invigorate you, as grapefruit encapsulates all your senses. Honeysuckle adds a round mid palate, while the bright acidity keeps the wine light and compliments the effervescence, perfect for relaxing as you float down the lazy river.
