About this listen

Wine has a long history in Mexico, with its introduction arguably dating back to the 16th century. However, it was never massively consumed in the same manner as pulque, beer, or vino de mezcal. There are even annecdotes about communion wine was spiked with coconut spirits (vino de coco) to give it some proper potency.

But our relationship with grapes has been changing in recent years. The wines from Baja California have gained a consistent following, and new regions all around Mexico have been exploring the grape varietals and the wine styles that can better suit them. In this episode with @noah.tovares , founder of @vinoschidos.mx, we talked wine for a full hour, hopefully enticing you to start drinking and enjoying Mexican grapes. Saludcita!
