Bajacaliforniano Wine
Bajacaliforniano Wine Ensenada is the unofficial capital of Mexico's finest winemaking region, northwestern Baja California. Most Canadians and Americans are unaware of the quality of Mexican wines and assume rum and tequila are all the country has to offer. On the contrary, bajacaliforniano wines are shipped all over Mexico and western Europe, but because of U.S. and Canadian trade policies, they weren't exported north of the border until very recently. They're still difficult to find in Canada and the U.S., in spite of the fact that American Wine magazine now runs a regular report on Mexican wines. This may change as NAFTA reaches full implementation. In the meantime, if you want to taste wines produced in northern Baja, you can always go to the source.To learn more about Baja wines, and to sample some vintages, join one of the daily tours offered at Bodegas de Santo Tomçs in Ensenada...
