wines
compared to traditional european cuisine, asian cusine utilises the entire palate of taste and tactile sensations. these hot, sour, salty, sweet and bitter essences present a fantastic palate of flavours to combine with wine. all the wines on our list have been selected for their ability to enjoy with asian cuisine, however there are several loose rules to consider:       
· softer, sweeter, fruitier wines balance hotter spicier dishes
· fruit-driven wines match sweeter dishes
· crisp wines for tangy dishes
· smoother full-bodied wine for rich creamy dishes
