Here are a few guidelines to get started in matching wine with food, but remember, you can break the rules! White wines, like sauvignon blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, and Riesling, are traditionally paired with fish, seafood, and chicken. Red wines, like Rioja, Pinot Noir, Zinfandel, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon, are typically paired with pork, beef, and lamb. Additionally, spicy dishes go well with Riesling and Zinfandel.
