White · Medium · Off-dry
Lychee, rose petal, and a touch of ginger; medium-bodied, low-acid, and unmistakable. The wine for any cuisine where the spice cabinet did the heavy lifting.
Why it works with Chettinad Chicken
Aromatic Gewürz is the textbook foil for fiery Chettinad masala with star anise and fennel.
White · Light · Off-dry
Aromatic, racy, and shapeshifting — bone-dry in Alsace, off-dry on the Mosel, syrupy and ageless when late-harvested. The single most versatile wine for spicy food on earth.
Why it works with Chettinad Chicken
Off-dry Riesling tames the heavy chili heat while citrus refreshes the palate.
Rosé · Light · Dry
Provence's gift to summer — dry, pale, faintly strawberry-and-citrus, with low alcohol and crisp acid. Made to drink cold, with food, in the shade.
Why it works with Chettinad Chicken
Dry rosé's berry-fruit handles the fennel-fennel-pepper-chili masala without competing.
