Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Sparkling Wine, Riesling, Sparkling Rose

Nachos can be paired with Pinot Noir, Sparkling Wine, and Riesling. If you're serving a selection of appetizers, you can't go wrong with these. Both are very food friendly and complement a variety of flavors. The Argyle Pinot Noir with a 4.2 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 25 dollars per bottle.

Argyle Pinot Noir

Argyle Pinot Noir is honest and unmingled. The 2012 vintage for Pinot Noir made itself. Fermented in small lots, and blended for purity, this year's blend croons of ripe, red raspberry, morello cherry and a hint of backwoods spice. No other word can describe the palate but lush. Gentle, slightly firm tannin beneath, the acid sings true and long. Enjoy early, or sit on it a few years for enhanced nuance.
