Choosing wine with curry and spicy food

Which kind of curry?

Think about the sauce and heat. Mild coconut curry and hot tomato-based curry are different pairings. Riesling or Gewürztraminer are aromatic options; an off-dry bottle may suit chilli. Neither grape name guarantees sweetness.

Do you need a sweet wine?

You may not. Chilli and sweetness in the sauce should guide that decision. Look for freshness and fruit, and ask the retailer if the bottle’s sweetness is unclear.
