This brand can always be counted on for quality wines at value prices, and this crisp white is an example. Straightforward in its tangy grapefruit, grass, and melon flavors, a dominant thread of lime weaves it all together. Tart but balanced, it’s a good choice as an aperitif, with appetizers, shellfish, curries, and green chile enchiladas. Widely available in at grocery stores or at BevMO! for only $9.99.
