Recommended wine: Riesling, Sparkling Wine, Zinfandel

Riesling, Sparkling Wine, and Zinfandel are my top picks for Southern. In general, there are a few rules that will help you pair wine with southern food. Food-friendly riesling or sparkling white wine will work with many fried foods, while zinfandel is great with barbecued fare. One wine you could try is NV Amber Falls Winery Sarah's Choice Riesling. It has 5 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 16 dollars.

NV Amber Falls Winery Sarah's Choice Riesling

This semi-sweet aromatic Riesling has a distinct "honey" bouquet. Perfectly balanced, this wine has tasting notes of ripe fruit on the front and a lingering light finish.
