Here are 3 recommended wine pairings for tikka masala. Click the button below to explore all options on the Verso app.

Gewurztraminer d'Alsace

white · Gewurztraminer · Alsace · France — 10–12°C

Alsatian Gewurztraminer's lychee, rose and candied ginger extinguish the tikka heat with natural sweetness — lychee marrying cardamom, ginger directly echoing the yogurt marinade.

Mosel Riesling Spätlese

white · Riesling · Moselle · Allemagne — 8–10°C

Mosel Riesling Spätlese (late-harvest, 30-50g/L residual sugar) is the classic anti-curry weapon: residual sugar tames chili capsaicin and cardamom, sharp acidity cuts the cream-tomato sauce, peach-apricot notes prolong the yogurt marinade.

Riesling Kabinett

white · Riesling · Mosel · Allemagne — 8–10°C

German off-dry Riesling is the perfect anti-chili — acidity + sugar = refreshment.
