Recommended wine: Riesling, Gewurztraminer, Chenin Blanc

Asian works really well 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 J.J. Prum Graacher Himmelreich Kabinett Riesling with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 22 dollars per bottle.
