Recommended wine: Chenin Blanc, Gewurztraminer, Riesling

Chenin Blanc, Gewurztraminer, and Riesling are my top picks for Asian. The best wine for Asian food depends on the cuisine and dish - of course - but these acidic whites pair with a number of traditional meals, spicy or not. The De Morgenzon Reserve Chenin Blanc with a 4.2 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 34 dollars per bottle.

Decadent golden with green hues, this Chardonnay exhibits aromas of toasted brioche with zesty marmalade. A backbone of lime and lemongrass with floral notes of honeysuckle and frangipani emerge on the palate. Warm, rich vanilla and a creamy almond nuance linger on the finish.
