Wine Pairings
Sweet & spicy chicken – pair it with: A bright pinot. Good affordable pinot noir is difficult to find, but this new release crams bushels of ripe strawberry and raspberry flavours into a wallet-friendly bottle. Savour the sweet red-berry character and soft tannins that marry well with the spiciness of the chicken stir-fry. Our pick: Cono Sur Bicicleta Pinot Noir, Chile, $12.
