Soy-Garlic Stir Fry: Sauvignon Blanc & Pinot Noir


Sauvignon Blanc highlights ginger and scallion with citrusy lift. A chillable Pinot Noir adds red fruit without heavy tannin.

Spicy Stir Fry: Off-Dry Riesling & Gamay


An off-dry Riesling softens heat and brightens aromatics. Gamay offers juicy fruit that stands up to chili and pepper.

Teriyaki or Honey-Soy: Chenin Blanc & Zinfandel


Chenin Blanc balances sweetness with crisp acidity. For red, Zinfandel brings ripe fruit and spice to match bolder glazes.

Veggie-Forward Stir Fry: Pinot Grigio & Prosecco


Pinot Grigio keeps greens and snap peas lively. Prosecco adds bubbles that cleanse the palate between bites.

Tips for pairing wine with chicken stir fry


  • Mind sweetness – Off-dry styles can balance sweet or spicy sauces.
  • Keep tannins low – High tannin clashes with soy and heat.
  • Chill light reds – A slight chill on Gamay or Pinot Noir boosts refreshment.
