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. You could try DeLoach Russian River Pinot Noir. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 14 dollars per bottle.
DeLoach Russian River Pinot Noir
DeLoach Russian River Pinot Noir
A beautiful ruby red color in the glass, the 2018 Russian River Pinot Noir opens with bright red fruit aromas of strawberry and cherry. Raspberry, rhubarb and dark plum flavors are met with a touch of spice and bright acidity. This is a medium-bodied wine with moderate tannins and a lingering and mouthwatering finish
