Pinot Gris Wine
This Crock Pot Pork Posole recipe can be quite flavorful. When it comes to Mexican cuisine very few people pair the dishes with wine. Typically a nice light beer with a lime, or a margarita enhance the flavors of the dish. While I do agree that both pair well with the flavors of Mexican cuisine, do not discount wine! I feel that a chilled Pinot Gris goes great with this Pork Posole recipe. The spice of the dish goes well with the melon fruit and citrus notes which are typical from a good Pinot Gris.
