Wine & Indian Cuisine Pairing at Rasa

How to Complete

3 steps curated by Wine Memories

1. 🍷 1

   Order the Secret Winemaker's Thali

   wine $$

   The "Winemaker's Thali" - NOT on the regular menu. India's FIRST vineyard restaurant (opened 2007) created this for insiders. At Rasa Restaurant, Sula Vineyards, ask to be seated overlooking the vines and tell your server: "I heard there's a Winemaker's Thali?" Watch their face light up. It has off-menu wine pairings.

   🔄 BACKUP: The regular thali is excellent, but the winemaker version has special pairings.

   Taste the Pairing Everyone Said Was Impossible

   wine $

   Wine with spicy Indian curry - every sommelier said IMPOSSIBLE. The chef proved them wrong. Order Dindori Shiraz + lamb biryani at your table. Taste the Shiraz FIRST. Then the biryani. Then the Shiraz again. Notice how it CUTS through the heat instead of fighting it.

   🔄 BACKUP: Sauvignon Blanc with fish curry works too - ask your server for the chef's pairing recommendation.

   Watch India's Wine Revolution From Your Table

   adventure Free

   50+ acres of the vineyards where India's wine revolution happened. You're in India's FIRST vineyard restaurant. Request the outdoor terrace or vineyard-view window table and book a sunset table (6-7 PM). As the golden light hits the vines, you'll understand why 350,000 people come here each year.

   🔄 BACKUP: Even indoor tables have some vineyard sightlines - ask for "vineyard side."
