Off-dry Riesling is the best all-round wine for spicy food because its refreshing acidity and gentle sweetness help balance chilli heat while complementing aromatic flavours. Gewürztraminer and sparkling wine are excellent alternatives.
Syrah and Shiraz are two names for the same dark-skinned red grape. It typically produces dry, full-bodied wines with flavours of blackberry, plum, black pepper and spice. It is most famous in the Rhône Valley and across Australia, where styles range from elegant and savoury to rich and powerful.
