Who says you have to wait until dinner time to enjoy a glass of wine? Not us! We’re here to tell you that pairing the right wine with your takeout can make the overall experience much more enjoyable. Let’s explore some of the best wines for your favorite takeout orders.
Spicy Food and Riesling
If you’re in the mood for something spicy like Indian or Thai food, then look no further than an off-dry Riesling. This type of white wine is perfect for soothing the heat from spicy dishes because its sweetness helps to balance out any spiciness on your tongue. Plus, it has enough acidity to cut through any heavy flavours in the dish. Win-win!
Sushi and Sparkling Wine
Not only does sparkling wine pair perfectly with sushi, but it also elevates the whole experience by adding some fun bubbles into the mix. Sparkling wines will complement sushi's delicate flavors without overpowering them.
Burgers and Cabernet Sauvignon
Nothing goes together better than burgers and Cabernet Sauvignon (well, maybe fries too!). This full-bodied red wine has enough structure and tannins to hold up against the heaviness of a burger while its fruity notes add a nice layer of complexity to your meal. It’s an all-around crowd pleaser that pairs particularly well with BBQ dishes if that’s more your style.
Takeout meals don't have to be boring - jazz them up with a bottle of vino! Whether you're ordering pizza or sushi, there's always a stellar wine ready to pair with your meal. So next time you order takeout, don't forget about picking up a bottle too - after all, what's better than having great food AND delicious drinks?
