what wine should I serve with a curry?

Answer 1

beer wud b best to serve with curry

Answer 2

That old myth about white wine with white meat is making me laugh. Totally old school, and not how it works anymore. Beer with curry - ok, but I actually don't drink beer. I'd take the vino.

Wines are to be matched with the dish, not the meat. Spicy curry dish? You can serve a robust flavourful wine. Mild curry dish? You can serve anything light and refreshing. Sweet curry dish? Maybe something rose, or fruity? If you are trying to impress your guests, then the best thing to do is to go to a wine shop (if you can find one) and ask the staff to assist you, and recommend something. They love that!!

For the guy who noted finding an Indian wine to go with the curry - dude...curry comes from MANY countries. maybe its a Thai curry, or a West Indie curry. humf.

Answer 3

Actually, it depends on the curry, but most Indian and Thai curries would go well with Gewurtztraminer (someone already mentioned this), particularly one from Alsace, France. From that region, Gewurtztraminer has a strong lychee/fruity fragrance which I think is well matched particularly to sweet Thai curries.

I have heard that sweet wines like Sauternes go well with curry but I personally do not like that combo.

If you are talking dark curry (like Japanese and Koreans make) then I would have to say: beer.

Answer 4

Always serve Lager with Curry

Answer 5

Merlot

Or if it's a very hot curry and you'll be needing lots of wine to wash it down I suggest:

Boones Farm Strawberry Wine

Answer 6

Pretty much anything you like! A chilled white may help dampen the heat of a spicy dish, a light red will help bring out the flavours. It's probably best to avoid a full-bodied red, as it could be a bit too heavy on the insides with a curry ...

Answer 7

Wine should never be served with curry. A sure way of making yourself sick.

Answer 8

The best wine to drink with a curry is barley wine. Try Whitbread Gold Label (10.9%), Bass’s No 1 Barley Wine (10.5%) or Fuller’s Vintage Ale (8.5%).
