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 Weingut Darting Durkheimer Nonnengarten Riesling Kabinett (1 Liter). It has 4.4 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 18 dollars.

Durkheimer Hochbenn Kabinett Riesling is a rich and sultry wine. There's a slight surmise of botrytis, and a few nubby tannins, but the overall effect is sold and firm
