Which French wine goes well with Thai cuisine?
Perfect Wine Pairings for Thai Cuisine
Thai cuisine is rich in flavor and spice, making it challenging to find the right wine to accompany your meal. Whether you prefer Pad Thai, green curry with shrimp, or Thai chicken, discover the best wine pairings to complement Thai and Asian food.
Which Wine with Pad Thai?
Pad Thai is a quintessential Thai dish made with stir-fried rice noodles, chicken, thinly sliced beef, or shrimp, coated in a tamarind-based sauce with peanuts, chili, bean sprouts, lime, coriander, and Asian spices.
To pair with homemade Pad Thai, opt for an expressive white wine. A Vouvray with notes of ripe and exotic fruits will enhance your dish beautifully. A Provence rosé is also a perfect match for Pad Thai.
Which Wine with Thai Curry?
Thai cuisine features a variety of unique curries: green curry with shrimp and coconut milk, spicy red curry with beef, vegetable curry, and more. To complement such dishes, try a dry red wine from southern France, such as a Côtes du Rhône. You can also enjoy your Thai curry with a rosé, like a Bandol rosé or a Cassis rosé.
Which Wine with Thai Chicken?
Spicy Thai chicken is a popular dish in Asia and can easily be made at home. With various recipes featuring different spices and seasonings, consider pairing your Thai chicken with dry white wines like Alsace Pinot Gris, Riesling, or Côtes du Rhône blanc to balance the flavors of the dish. Depending on the recipe, you might also choose a light red wine, such as an Anjou rouge.
Best Wine Pairings for Thai and Asian Cuisine
Traditionally, Asian cuisine is not paired with wine. Full of flavors, spices, and sweet-sour combinations, it can be challenging to find the ideal wine match for Thai food. For a successful pairing, avoid overly powerful and tannic red wines that may overpower the subtle flavors of Thai dishes. Instead, choose expressive white wines, southern rosés, or light red wines from Burgundy or the Loire, which will enhance the aromas of Thai food.
