Verdejo, Marqués de Cáceres, Rueda, 2019, Spain

Texture: Medium-bodied, easy-drinking and vibrant

For all you white wine drinkers stuck drinking the same old Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Grigio, this wine is a portal to a whole new world called Verdejo. You may have never heard of this grape variety, but it’s time to pick up a book in a new genre. This grape from Rueda (wine region) in Spain has all the aforementioned whites’ character traits with a little bit of a plot twist when it hits your palate. Verdejo’s offering is a little sassier with tropical fruits and a touch of naughty adventure. For $9.99, it’s cheaper than a page-turner paperback and twice as fun.

What You’ll Taste: Mandarin orange, grapefruit peel, white peaches, and touches of yellow flowers.

Food Pairing: Light cheeses, fresh garden green salad with a citrus vinaigrette, sushi, OR all of them!  

Price: $9.99
