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 6 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.

White · Full · Dry

California's flagship white — rounder, riper, and oakier than the Old World original, with tropical fruit, butter, and vanilla. Sonoma Coast and Sta. Rita Hills bottlings are leaner; Napa stays plush.

Why it works with Grilled Salmon With Thai Curry Sauce And Basmati Rice

American Merlot

Adventurous

Red · Medium · Dry

California Merlot, when made well — plummy, supple, with a touch of cocoa and earlier drinkability than its Bordeaux cousins. The unfairly maligned dinner-party red.

Why it works with Pan-roasted Salmon With Ginger And Curry

American Merlot's mid-weight flatters Pan-roasted Salmon With Ginger And Curry without taking over — the everyday red strategy.

White · Light · Off-dry

Washington and Finger Lakes Rieslings split the difference between Mosel delicacy and Alsatian heft — bright stone fruit, modest sweetness, lively acid. A natural with Thai, Indian, and anything off the spice rack.

Why it works with Roast Salmon With Thai Red Curry And Bok Choy

American Riesling's racing acid and lean body lift Roast Salmon With Thai Red Curry And Bok Choy without competing — the textbook seafood-and-white-wine logic.

Rosé · Light · Dry

Why it works with Roast Salmon With Thai Red Curry And Bok Choy

American Rosé's dry, fruity profile matches Roast Salmon With Thai Red Curry And Bok Choy without crowding it — a summer staple.

Red · Medium · Dry

Australia's signature red — dense, spice-driven, peppery, often pushing 15% alcohol. Barossa makes it brawniest; McLaren Vale, smokier; Hunter, leaner. Built for the grill.

Why it works with Pan-roasted Salmon With Ginger And Curry

Australian Shiraz's mid-weight flatters Pan-roasted Salmon With Ginger And Curry without taking over — the everyday red strategy.
