This exclusive guide offers suggestions for pairing wines with 7 popular Chinese New Year (“CNY”) dishes, including Steamboat and Lohei. These recommendations are suitable for a group of 5 people or more. Let’s go!

One option for pairing with spicy shrimp rolls is an off-dry wine, such as a Lambrusco, to help balance out the salty and spicy flavors of the dish. This type of wine can help complement the taste of the shrimp paste and Hae Bee Hiam, and add an interesting twist to your Lunar New Year celebration.

One way to elevate your Lunar New Year hot pot experience is by pairing it with a Prosecco Rose sparkling wine or a Viognier white wine. The Prosecco Rose is a festive choice that pairs well with delicate ingredients like meatballs and sliced beef, while the Viognier is a rich and fruity option that goes well with seafood or vegetable-based hot pots. If you’re not a fan of sparkling wine, the Viognier is a round and tasty alternative.

The refreshing bubbles will complement the flavors of your Lo Hei perfectly. Don’t miss out on this unique pairing opportunity!

Upgrade your traditional roast suckling pig dish with a bold, full-bodied, slight fruity Châteauneuf-Du-Pape wine that has a balanced tannins to counter the fattiness and oil!

A classic CNY dish, Peking duck is best paired with light to medium-bodied wines that won’t overpower the delicate flavor of the meat.
