What to look for in the wine

01

Keep enough acidity in the wine

Tangy ingredients can make a low-acid wine seem flat. Choose a fresh wine for sautéed tofu with lemon and tahini and check the acidity reading where it is available. Taste your sauce before settling on the bottle.

02

Account for the preparation

Sautéed preparation changes the weight and intensity of sautéed tofu with lemon and tahini. Taste the sauce and seasoning as well as the main ingredient before choosing the bottle.

03

Check the individual wine

Wines from the same grape can differ in body, alcohol and sweetness. Compare those details in the profiles below; a grape name alone cannot establish how a bottle will work with your recipe.
