I know beer is the logical answer, but it has to be a wine pairing. The complete dish is Buffalo Hot Sauce Shrimp over Blue Cheese Coleslaw.
TIA

Why??? I would have suggested an off dry Riesling until you got to bleu cheese. Maybe a fruitier rose? Stumped on this one.
PH
just use a cheap ruby port

PH, we are having some friends over for a multi course dinner, with wine with each dish. I feel like throwing a beer into the menu would throw it out of balance with the rest of the pairings.
FWIW I will be the only one out of the group that will be disappointed if the pairing don't turn out. The rest of the group enjoy wine but consider me the geek of the group, which is comical compared to the knowledge here.
Look,
Belgian ale is the "correct" answer.
If it must be wine, though...
>clicky<. I would probably go with the '05 at RWC. But probably can't go wrong with any, and the '07 is great, too.
Another high class sparkling Loire Chenin Blanc would work as well.
German Sekt (eg. Breuer or Donnhoff) or Austrian Sekt (eg. Willi Brundlmayer) could work as could a Lini Rose/Rosato Lambrusco. But the Huet is where I would go.

Thanks, love the price point too
May be a boring option compared to some of the other suggestions, but what about a decent zinfandel -- Hendry; Green and Red; Bedrock; Ridge
Pac-Rim Dry Riesling. ... Works like a freakin' charm.
my only experiences in pairing with buffalo anything typically involve gallons of cheap beer and a high probability of a parking lot fight. On a related note - do not pair a leafs jersey and comments about someones sister with buffalo anything.

+1 on that but I'd like to add a Hooters waitress that's only working there "until she has enough saved for college".
