Recommended wine: Albarino, Rose Wine, Sauvignon Blanc

Albarino, rosé Wine, and Sauvignon Blanc are great choices for Cajun. These low-tannin, lower alcohol wines will complement the heat in spicy cajun dishes, instead of making your mouth burn more. You could try Don Olegario Albarino. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 19 dollars per bottle.
