🍇Pairing Wine With Cinco de Mayo Foods 🍇

 
 

Noisy Water Winery was founded in New Mexico, so our roots run deep within Mexican culture, as it is the most prominent heritage in our beloved border state. Today we celebrate the resilience, strength and unity of this heritage by sharing our favorite wine pairings with Cinco de Mayo inspired foods.
 

Did You Know?

 

Cinco de Mayo is not Mexican Independence Day, a popular misconception. Instead, it commemorates a victory over France at the Battle of Puebla during the Franco-Mexican War. Cinco de Mayo has evolved into a commemoration of Mexican culture and heritage, particularly in areas with large Mexican-American populations.

 

 
 

TACOS & WINE
2019 Nuevo Verde
$27.00   $24.00
 
 
2017 Zinfandel
$30.00
 

When making fish tacos, more likely than not, your fresh fish tacos are going to come dressed in a sauce or vegetables and herbs; for this, our 2019 Nuevo Verde balances the spicy flavors of the tacos with its spritzy and acidic flavor profile. 

 

When making carne asada or ground beef tacos, the 2017 Zinfandel's rich, fruit-forward palate and robust tannins pair gorgeously with the fat and spice of these darker meats.
 

GUACAMOLE & WINE
2018 Pinot Grigio

Cinco de Mayo isn't complete without fresh guacamole, so we suggest pairing avocado dishes with a zesty white wine such as the 2018 Pinot Grigio. The mouth watering acidity in the wine cuts through the sweetness and fattiness of the fruit, making the pairing a total palate pleaser. 
$27.00
 

EMPANADAS & WINE
2017 Malbec

The 2017 Malbec is a good choice to pair with apple or other fruit empanadas for dessert because the mocha, molasses and tobacco notes of this dry red blend beautifully with the crisp crunch and the sweet jammy filling of this classic dessert.
$44.00   $36.00
