Baja-Style Fish Tacos

Indulge in the iconic Baja-Style Fish Tacos at Casanova Fish Tacos in Baja, CA, and enhance your culinary experience with the perfect wine pairing. The grilled fish, fresh toppings, and warm tortillas of these mouthwatering tacos are perfectly complemented by a light and vibrant white wine like a Sauvignon Blanc or a Verdejo.

The crisp acidity and citrus notes of these wines provide a refreshing contrast to the smoky flavors of the grilled fish while harmonizing with the tangy salsa or pico de gallo, creating a delightful combination.

Grilled Chipotle Shrimp Tacos

If you’re craving a smoky and slightly spicy kick, our grilled chipotle shrimp tacos are a fantastic choice. The succulent shrimp is marinated in a delectable house-made chipotle sauce and then grilled to perfection. The smoky flavors of the shrimp call for a crisp and refreshing wine. A Sauvignon Blanc or a dry Riesling with its vibrant acidity and citrus notes can cut through the richness of the chipotle sauce while enhancing the natural flavors of the shrimp.

The fruity and earthy undertones of these wines complement the richness of the beef, creating a harmonious combination of flavors.

Grilled Sweet Ginger Fish Tacos

Combining the sweetness of ginger with the delicate flavors of fish, our grilled sweet ginger fish tacos are a true delight. The ginger adds subtle warmth and complexity to the dish, making it a unique culinary experience.

These aromatic white wines with their hints of tropical fruits and floral notes can balance the sweetness of the ginger while enhancing the natural flavors of the fish.
