How to Pair Wine with Indian Food and Succeed Every Time
Pairing Wine with Indian Starters
Indian starters are all about bold flavors, amazing spices, and a mix of textures that make them super exciting – but yeah, picking the right wine to go with them can feel like a bit of a puzzle.
Got a thing for those rich, creamy dishes? You’ll need a wine that can hang with all the spice, char, and creaminess going on. Think paneer or chicken tikka. Las Montana Sauvignon Blanc (Chile) is a solid choice – crisp, citrusy, and super refreshing. The green apple and citrus vibes cut right through the creamy goodness and totally vibe with those smoky, charred bits. Best combo? Chicken tikka or paneer tikka, especially when you’ve got some chutney or a fresh salad on the side. Red Wines: Grab a Las Montana Merlot (Chile) – soft, fruity, and ridiculously easy to drink. It’s got this nice red berry thing going on that pairs like a dream with the smoky, charred tikka flavours without stealing the show. Best served with: Chicken tikka, naan, or rice – you can’t go wrong.
