Recommended wine: Riesling, Gewurztraminer, Chenin Blanc
Asian on the menu? Try pairing with Riesling, Gewurztraminer, and Chenin Blanc. 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 Domaine LesSurre Semi Dry Cuvee Classique Riesling with a 4.8 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 22 dollars per bottle.
