Wine Pairing Suggestions for Your Menu
  • White Wine – Off-Dry Riesling (Alsace or German Kabinett)
    Its slight sweetness and high acidity balance the Sichuan spice while complementing the dumplings and mango pudding.
  • Alternative White – Gewürztraminer (Alsace)
    Floral and aromatic, it enhances the bold Sichuan flavors while adding a refreshing lychee and ginger contrast.
  • Red Wine – Gamay (Beaujolais-Villages)
    Its bright acidity and juicy red fruit notes cut through the richness of the dumplings without overwhelming the flavors.
  • Alternative Red – Pinot Noir (Oregon or Burgundy)
    Soft and earthy, it complements the umami depth of the dumplings while staying light enough for delicate fillings.
  • Dessert Wine – Moscato d'Asti (Italy)
    Its gentle sweetness and slight effervescence enhance the mango pudding while refreshing the palate after the spicy dishes.
