Spring Wine Picks
A fun season for exploring new styles ...
A fun season for exploring new styles of wine, spring boasts longer, warmer days and crisp evenings, making all choices possible. Rosé, a natural go-to, is great any time of day: perfect at brunch, for mid-afternoon sipping and even dinner pairing. Sunnier weather and the fresh flavors of spring also call for the exploration of new, bright and lively whites. But don’t be too quick to eschew red wines altogether this season. Bold reds have their place at those cool, late evening barbecues.
