Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Riesling, Sparkling Rose

Mexican 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. You could try Buena Vista Chateau Buena Vista Pinot Noir. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.8 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 39 dollars per bottle.
