Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Riesling, Sparkling Rose
Pinot Noir, Riesling, and Sparkling rosé are great choices for Mexican. 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 Barefoot Cellars Pinot Noir Wine with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 13 dollars per bottle.
Barefoot Cellars Pinot Noir Wine
Barefoot Pinot Noir is fruity and elegant with delightful red fruit & lavender aromas that excite before the first sip! Subtle oak notes lift the Bing cherry and raspberry flavors. Enjoy the lingering, silky finish.
