Spain's traditional-method sparkling, made in Catalunya. Crisper and chalkier than Prosecco; remarkable value next to Champagne. Pair with jamón, tortilla, and grilled vegetables.

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.

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.

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
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 Thai Curry Penne With Ginger-tomato Chutney
American Riesling's bright acid lifts Thai Curry Penne With Ginger-tomato Chutney cleanly — the lean white strategy.
Rosé · Light · Dry

Why it works with Indian-style Chicken With Ginger And Curry
American Rosé's strawberry-and-citrus is a natural partner for Indian-style Chicken With Ginger And Curry — easy, food-friendly, summery.
White · Light · Dry
California's take — riper than Sancerre, calmer than Marlborough, with grapefruit, melon, and a clean mineral finish. The everyday white that pairs with almost anything green or briny.
Why it works with Indian-style Chicken With Ginger And Curry
American Sauvignon Blanc's brightness lifts Indian-style Chicken With Ginger And Curry cleanly; the acid frames the meat without crowding it.
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.
Sparkling · Light · Dry
Méthode champenoise from the most chalk-rich corner of France — fine bubbles, brioche, lemon zest, and a finish that goes on for half a minute. The wine for anything fried, salty, or special.
Why it works with Indian-style Chicken With Ginger And Curry
Champagne is the open secret of every great restaurant.
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 Curry Ginger Salmon
Pinot Noir is the rare red that works with salmon — silky tannin meets the fish's natural fat.
