Wine With Curry

I like both wine and curry. It is possible to combine them. There’s an upcoming webcast chat featuring Charles Metcalfe and his suggestions. As the chat is being sponsored by Alsace wines, you won’t be surprised to find that Alsace wines feature prominently in his suggestions. To broaden it out a bit, Hugh Johnson suggests medium-sweet white, very cold: Orvieto Abboccato, South African Chenin Blanc, Indian sparkling, cava or non-vintage champagne. If you want to go to the other extreme and emphasise the heat, try a Barolo or Barbaresco, or other deep-flavoured red.
