Lime Taqueria Wine Tasting

Gourmet Mexican wines and cuisine take center stage at Lime Taqueria.

Lime Taqueria will uncork the flavor of L.A.Cetto, one of the most renowned and oldest wineries in Mexico. L.A.Cetto’s award-winning wines will be paired with a special menu designed by Oscar Mendivil, Lime’s Executive Chef.

“I’m excited about introducing Atlantans to L.A. Cetto wines. People may be surprised to find out that Mexico not only has good tequila and beer but wines that are equal to or better than good Spanish wines,” said Mendivil. la cetto wines Wine Tasting at Lime Taqueria
