Recommended wine: Chenin Blanc, Gewurztraminer, Riesling

Asian works really well 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. The LangeTwins Prince Vineyard Chenin Blanc with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 21 dollars per bottle.

By simply preserving the aromas and flavors that were delivered from the winegrape, LangeTwins Chenin Blanc is a vibrant expression of the varietal. Crisp Granny Smith apple notes merge with a hint of tart pear to create a bright and refreshing wine that is easy to enjoy on its own.
