what to serve with mexican food

[hotwine]

Welcome to the board, P. You don't mention your budget.... if you want to stay on the low end, look for Borsao Campo de Borja, a Spanish blend of 75% Granacha (Grenache) and 25% Tempranillo, all of $5.69 per bottle at Costco. If you're willing to spend triple that, a California Zin works pretty well with Mexican food. Or default to a nice Mexican beer; I prefer Dos Equis Amber. With 50 people, I'd plan on buying two cases of wine, since half a bottle per person is a reasonable consumption rate at dinner (at least, for some people.... not necessarily the members of this board).
