Spring Wine: Vinho Verde

Vinho Verde and Rose make fantastic Spring wines. At only $10 a bottle from Whole Food's, this is one of the best deals. The wine is slightly effervescent but not as carbonated and bubbly as champagne or prosecco. Its teeny tiny bubbles make it really crisp and zippy. The tip of your tongue will be the giveaway for this characteristic. It's super light bodied, very pale yellow/green, and has citrus notes. The sales rep described it as "poolside" wine. This was great by itself but I could also see it pairing nicely with shellfish and salads with citrus vinaigrette.
