You\u2019re probably still bundled up in a sweater with a glass of red as you read this, but don\u2019t worry\u2014warmer weather is right around the corner! We\u2019ve put together a list of seven spring wines you should try in the upcoming season. Whether you prefer red or white, there\u2019s something for everyone in our online wine store<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Chardonnay<\/h2>\n

If you prefer dry wine, Chardonnay is the way to go. Said to be the crowd-pleaser of white wines, it\u2019s a full-bodied option that completes any spring evening.<\/p>\n

In most cases, Chardonnay will include apple or tropical fruit. It can also include oak, which gives it a delicious vanilla flavor and earthy aroma. No matter the occasion, there\u2019s a Chardonnay out there to suit it.<\/p>\n

The trick is to serve Chardonnay with buttery, creamy, or mildly seasoned dishes. For example, it tastes best when you pair it with pastas, risottos, and shellfish. You should avoid serving it too cold, as its temperature affects the way it tastes. Let it sit out of the refrigerator for about twenty minutes before you drink.<\/p>\n

Pinot Noir<\/h2>\n

Why is this type of wine a suitable choice for spring? It\u2019s elegant and flavorful. Plus, it\u2019s not too dry or too sweet\u2014you could say it\u2019s the Goldilocks of the reds.<\/p>\n

A Pinot Noir is a light-bodied red with high acidity. Because it\u2019s very fruity, Pinot Noir pairs well with chicken, lamb, pork, and salmon dinners. While these wines don\u2019t need to be too cold, keep them in a wine cellar or refrigerator to ensure the best taste.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re hosting a party, don\u2019t be afraid to fill your guests\u2019 glasses with Pinot Noir. Everyone in your group will love it!<\/p>\n

Prosecco<\/h2>\n

This white wine\u2019s vibrancy and sparkle makes it a timeless favorite, and it complements a variety of cocktails. You can find both dry and sweet Proseccos, and they commonly have aromas and flavors of citrus fruits and spring flowers.<\/p>\n

When it comes to this bubbly beverage, don\u2019t be afraid to get creative. While prosecco is commonly a festive treat, you can enjoy it year-round\u2014just as the Italians do! Spring is a great time to enjoy a fizz on a Friday night, or you can invite a few friends over for a Sunday mimosa brunch.<\/p>\n

Prosecco is terrific with appetizers, mushrooms, soft cheeses, and so much more. It\u2019s truly a joy to drink, so stock up just in time for spring!<\/p>\n

Riesling<\/h2>\n

This type of white wine is truly unique\u2014some Rieslings are sweet, some aren\u2019t. Because it\u2019s an easy wine to drink, you\u2019re sure to find a Riesling that you\u2019ll love, no matter your preferences<\/a>.<\/p>\n

All Rieslings have strong floral aromas and high acidity. This is why they\u2019re crisp and the perfect accompaniment for grilled fish and meats, as well as heavily spiced Indian and Thai dishes. Still, because of its versatility, you can pair a Riesling with almost any plate.<\/p>\n

When you sip this wine, you\u2019ll taste pears, peaches, and other delectable fruits. Riesling is truly an amazing variety you shouldn\u2019t pass up on this spring.<\/p>\n

Ros\u00e9<\/h2>\n

What\u2019s a springtime event without it? Ros\u00e9 is by far the most popular choice; while it\u2019s a dry wine, it\u2019s also refreshing and sweet. This type of wine usually features red berry, citrus, and flower flavors. Thanks to its adaptability, you can pair ros\u00e9 with just about any food you can imagine. If you want to host a backyard barbecue, this wine should be the star\u2014due to its sweetness, it\u2019s a great complement to smoky and spicy dishes. It acts as a great base for warm-weather cocktails, so be sure you always chill it beforehand.<\/p>\n

Sauvignon Blanc<\/h2>\n

A national favorite, Sauvignon Blanc is a must-have in your white wine collection this spring. It\u2019s a common wine for everyday drinking, as it\u2019s bright, fresh, and an overall lively choice. It features crisp citrus and grassy flavors, as well as interesting herb and spice aromas (think basil and jalape\u00f1o).<\/p>\n

The impressive balance between fruit and acidity makes a Sauvignon Blanc incredibly smooth. From soft cheeses and salads to seafood and more, no matter the cuisine, you can relax knowing this wine will pair with it beautifully. If you\u2019re craving a juicier wine, don\u2019t hesitate to reach for this medium-bodied classic. Don\u2019t forget to serve it chilled!<\/p>\n

Syrah<\/h2>\n

Contrary to popular belief, you can sip reds even after winter has come and gone. Although Syrah is a variety that includes some of the darkest full-bodied wines in the world, you can still enjoy it through the changing seasons. Even in the heat, its aroma and taste remain just as powerful.<\/p>\n

A Syrah typically includes dark berry and plum flavors, floral notes, and an unforgettable peppery spice. These qualities allow this red to pair wonderfully with barbecue, burgers, and other bold foods. It\u2019s even a perfect match for stinky cheeses!<\/p>\n

The richness will have you pouring glasses all season long. Plus, Syrah contains antioxidants, so you can indulge in a glass and still achieve your health-related goals.<\/p>\n
