                                                                            MEXICO

 

                                                The time has come to say goodbye to one of our best discoveries.

                                     We will not stock this line of wines anymore and we hope you've enjoyed them as

                                     much as we did bringing them to you. As always we will continue to find

                                     hidden jewels in Mexico.  I'm sure out there in the market you may find the Jubelio wines

                                     and if so,  Viva el Vino! Viva Mexico 

                                                                                                         -TWH

                                                    Mexico?  They make wine in Mexico?  Is the question

                                        I am asked quite often when I introduce a customer to a bottle

                                        from this area.  Vineyards have been planted in Mexico since the

                                        early 1500's, credit the Spaniards for Mexican wines.  When you

                                        consider that Mexico is connected to South America, why not wine?

                                        No, we're not talking Tijuana, but close.

                                                    We're looking further North to Baja California.  There you

                                        will find five regions worth the taste.  Santo Tomas, Rancho Viejo,

                                        Valle de Guadalupe, and the districts of Valle Redondo and Tanama.

                                                    Grapes of choice, the classic French grapes: Cabernet

                                        Sauvignon, Merlot and Petite Sirah, just to name a few.  Red grapes

                                        appear to be the favorite for this area.  I expect quite a few good wines

                                        to come from Baja California, Mexico.  Below are examples of wines

                                        from this area you can purchase from us.
