Cava

Classic 7 dishes

Gewurztraminer

Classic 7 dishes

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.

Riesling

Classic 7 dishes

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.

Rosé

Classic 7 dishes

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.

Beaujolais

Interesting 5 dishes

Red · Light · Dry

Gamay-based reds from southern Burgundy — light, fruity, food-friendly. The serious Cru bottlings (Morgon, Fleurie, Moulin-à-Vent) drink like Pinot Noir at half the price.

Red · Medium · Dry

Cabernet's softer sibling — plum, black cherry, and a whisper of chocolate, framed by rounder tannins and earlier drinkability. The wine that built Pomerol and the one to reach for when Cabernet feels like overkill.

Why it works with Curry Lamb Apricot Sosaties

A mid-weight Fruity Merlot flatters Curry Lamb Apricot Sosaties without overshadowing it — neither pulls focus.

Muscat Blanc

Adventurous

White · Medium · Dry

The Muscat grape family — covers everything from dry Alsace styles through sweet Beaumes-de-Venise to ancient Greek dessert wines. Always perfumed; always smells like grapes.

Why it works with Lamb Curry

Muscat Blanc's body and acid balance Lamb Curry's flavor profile.

Pinot Noir

Interesting

Red · Light · Dry

Burgundy's most temperamental grape, but the rewards are real — translucent ruby with a perfumed lift of red cherry, forest floor, and clove. Silken tannins and bright acid make it the most versatile red on the table; serve cool, around 58°F.

Why it works with Lamb Curry

Pinot Noir brings cherry and earth alongside Lamb Curry; no clash, no domination, just balance.

Shiraz

Classic

Red · Full · Dry

Old-vine Shiraz from Barossa or McLaren Vale: dark, peppery, and unembarrassed about its size. Black plum, smoked meat, licorice, and a finish that lingers like the last embers of a grill.

Why it works with Lamb Curry

Shiraz brings bones to Lamb Curry's flesh — tannin, oak, and dark fruit framing the meat's richness.

Red · Medium · Dry

Spanish table wine, broadly — Tempranillo, Garnacha, or a regional blend. Sun-soaked, food-friendly, increasingly remarkable for the price.

Why it works with Lamb Curry

Spanish Rioja's gentle structure complements Lamb Curry's flavors; reach for this when subtler is better.

Red · Medium · Dry

Spain's signature red — bright cherry, dusty earth, and a touch of vanilla from American oak. Soft enough to drink young; structured enough to age beautifully in the right cellar.

Why it works with Sweet Lamb Curry

A mid-weight Tempranillo flatters Sweet Lamb Curry without overshadowing it — neither pulls focus.
