If there’s anything we love more than vino, science has yet to discover it and since it’s National Wine Day we wanted to show our support for Latino made wines. Although many of these wines come from the same region of Mexico, they each have their own unique taste that pairs perfectly well with some Latinx-owned foods or the classic charcuterie board. Wine from Casa Madero has more of hint of chocolate while wine from Casa Frida may have a spicy and light feel. These wines may come from Mexico but you can purchase them at your local Bevmo or through any online delivery service. Here are 10 Mexican-owned wines that vary in flavors so we’ve got you covered no matter what you and your guests prefer. Cheers!

Seiscientos 600 Reales Sangiovese – Nebbiolo (Italian red wine grape) is a red wine from Don Tomas in Valle de Guadalupe, Baja California, Mexico. It is a delicious blend of 60 percent Sangiovese and 40 percent Nebbiiolo with fruity notes. The Nebbiolo really adds a boldness to the wine which customers say gives the wine a “personality” – considering Nebbiolo goes back to the 13th century it’s safe to assume its flavor has stood the test of time.

Diego Tinto is a red wine from Casa Frida in Valle de Guadalupe, Baja California, Mexico. When you first open the bottle, it seems very light but after a while it becomes slightly spicy and tannic (dry, bitter) with a very light feel. Every wine from Casa Frida has major Frida Kahlo inspo which is an added bonus on top of the already great taste.
