Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Riesling, Sparkling Rose

Tacos works really well 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. One wine you could try is Wild Horse Unbridled Pinot Noir. It has 4.4 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 24 dollars.

Wild Horse Unbridled Pinot Noir

This Unbridled Pinot Noir has generous cherry, blackberry and vanilla aromas withsubtle savory notes. It's full-bodied with ripe fruit flavors and supple tannins, making ita good match for wine-braised beef short ribs, grilled Portobello mushrooms, or roastpork loin with a raspberry balsamic glaze. It is delicious now, and should mature nicelyover the next five years.
