Wines of Mexico

 

We started an informal wine tasting group about a year ago.  We first started off rating all the wines then we figured what the heck.  We had 3 or 4 favorites and why bother rating them.  They either make the top 3 or 4 or they don't.  Listed right below is a Acell spread sheet with 29 wines rated.  Below that I list our favorite wines, that you can find here in Cuernavaca.  We have found a few very good wines for under 100 pesos.
