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 Botanica Wines Mary Delany Chenin Blanc with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 32 dollars per bottle.

Complex and elegant, with layers of pure, concentrated pear, citrus and stone fruit avors, mouth-watering acidity and a tangy, mineral core.
