Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Riesling, Sparkling Rose

Mexican on the menu? Try pairing with Pinot Noir, Riesling, and Sparkling rosé. Acidic white wines like riesling or low-tannin reds like pinot noir can work well with Mexican dishes. Sparkling rosé is a safe pairing too. The Willamette Valley Vineyards Whole Cluster rosé of Pinot Noir with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 20 dollars per bottle.

Bright pink in color with aromas of juicy strawberry, cherry, tropical lychee and vanilla cream, watermelon, strawberries and cream, red cherry and honeysuckle. Dry with a medium-body, round mouthfeel and vibrant flavors of nectarine, peach, honeysuckle and minerality. The refreshing acidity creates a lively and clean finish.This rosé is a versatile wine to pair with food as it can stand up to complex cuisines yet is comfortable with simple salads and seasonal vegetables. Enjoy with salmon sliders, ahi tuna, vegetable curries, bruschetta, balsamic chicken kabobs, wood-fired flatbreads, niçoise salads, cheese and charcuterie boards. Serve chilled.
