Alcohol
Mexican alcoholic beverages are top-notch. You'll
find the best prices in supermarkets, where you'll also find the
best selection of domestic wines. La Comercial Mexicana on Av. Tulum
and San Francisco de Asis, Hotel Zone, have the best selection of
foreign and domestic wines.
We find Mexican wines to be a bit on the acid side.
The white wines are distinctly better than the red, but all are
drinkable. Imported French and Spanish wines are expensive and name-brand
whiskeys and brandies are often quite rich in price.
L. A. Cetto is the most reliable Mexican wine for
the price we've tried so far. A nice bottle is under $6. We especially
liked their Blanc de Blanc white and Zinfandel red.
Super Gourmet Deli
Hotel Zone, Plaza Kukulcán, The Forum.
Ample wine selection
Prices here are rather high, but they have a very
wide selection of domestic and imported wines.
