1. The Identity of the Mexican White
The production of white wine in Mexico is having a good moment. From the Mediterranean climate and Pacific breezes of the Valle de Guadalupe in Baja California to the altitude of Parras (Coahuila), Querétaro or San Luis Potosí, Mexican winegrowers work with cool nights that preserve the natural acidity of the grape and give nervy, fruity, mineral whites.
At La Cava Shop you will find a selection of national whites with free shipping from $1,499 MXN, storage in climate-controlled cellars and 90 days for free returns. Also explore all Mexican wine and the white wines.

3. White Grapes in Mexico
Chenin Blanc
Widely planted in Baja California, it gives whites with a honeyed profile, balanced acidity and notes of guava, pineapple and orange blossom, both young and fresh and barrel-fermented.
Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc
Chardonnay, especially with oak, brings richness and notes of butter and baked apple; high-altitude Sauvignon Blanc stands out for its freshness, citrus profile and minerality.
4. Pairing and Service
A dry, young white of high acidity is the natural partner for ceviches, aguachiles, oysters and tiraditos. Chardonnays and oak blends go well with white mole, fish a la talla, poultry in creamy sauces and artisanal cheeses. Serve young ones between 6 °C and 8 °C and oak-aged ones between 10 °C and 12 °C.
