Generally, you can pair spicy wines with Thai and Indian dishes, and they'll work well. Try new world Cab Franc with heartier Indian curries. Try Gewurztraminer with lighter Thai dishes, and sushi.
Here are two BC wines to pair with sushi and Thai, or just sip on your patio when the weather gets warm. Both are available at VQA stores which are listed at http://www.winebc.com/vqastores.php
Jackson Triggs Proprietors' Reserve Cabernet Franc Rose. How interesting to find a rose made from the spicy Cab Franc grape.
Arrowleaf Gewurztraminer goes well with sushi or Thai. http://www.arrowleafcellars.com/gewurz.htm
My philosophy is that any yahoo with a credit card can buy a great bottle of wine when money's no object, so the excitement for me comes from finding a great value, and sharing it with you. After all, a terrific wine is made better when shared with friends. (Same with cocktails!)
