Here’s an intriguing Argen- tinian blend of elegant, aromatic Torrontes and ripe Chardonnay that works with this sandwich in a number of ways. The floral aromas complement the Asian spices in the sauce and slaw while the wine’s citrus and tropical fruit notes reach out to the vegetables. And its tangy acidity is just what’s needed to cut through the richness of fried chicken.
