Recommended wine: Chenin Blanc, Gewurztraminer, Riesling

Thai on the menu? Try pairing with Chenin Blanc, Gewurztraminer, and Riesling. 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. One wine you could try is De Morgenzon Reserve Chenin Blanc. It has 4.2 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 34 dollars.

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.
