A bunch of cilantro walked into a bar...


I walked into the Dover Arms beer & wine store with this bunch of cilantro in my hand...


And walked out with this $10 bottle of wine. When you need suggestions for wine pairings, it's always helpful to carry a prop.

Other Mexican pairing suggestions included some of the lighter-bodied reds, an Italian red whose name I can't remember (but it's on the bottom right shelf of the west wall) which goes really well with tomatoes, some Chianti and some sweeter reds, to balance out the spiciness. I was in a cheap mood, so this La Casona was the winner. And indeed, it goes great with Jay-burritos.
