Craving the bold flavours of Thai cuisine? Look no further than a crisp Riesling to complement the blend of spices. An off-dry Riesling, with dynamic tropical fruit flavours like pineapple and citrus, creates a perfect harmony with the complex Thai palate. The acidity and slight sweetness in this varietal act as the perfect counterbalance, cutting through the spice and enhancing the overall dining experience.

If your takeout of choice is lighter Japanese fare, like a delightful spread of sushi, consider pairing it with a refreshing Pinot Grigio. This dry white wine, characterized by signature citrus, melon, and peach flavours, boasts medium-high acidity that won’t be too overpowering for the dish. Instead, the wine will elevate your sushi experience, allowing the delicate fish to shine through beautifully!

For intensely spiced Indian dishes, like chicken curry or pork vindaloo, opt for a fruity and slightly sweet wine served cold – the perfect match for the heat. Rosé fits the bill, offering a refreshing and crisp profile. If your feast includes milder meat curries or cream-based sauces, a delicate and medium-tannin red, like Shiraz, works wonderfully as a wine pairing option.
