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. The August Kesseler The Daily August Trocken Pinot Noir with a 4.3 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 25 dollars per bottle.

August Kesseler The Daily August Trocken Pinot Noir

The Daily August Pinot Noir opens with a subtle scent of black cherry and blueberry, paired with the delicious aroma of cassis and red pepper. In the mouth it presents itself as fresh and fruity with tension on the palate and fine length. It is an elegant expression of Rheingau Pinot Noir.
