The perfect white wine


I am not a white wine drinker AT ALL, but it is SO hot in Chicago right now and when it gets this hot, I always start having these fantasies of the perfect crisp white wine that will be ridiculously refreshing and not leave a bad taste in my mouth. I always try at least once per summer, and am ALWAYS let down. Opala vinho verde. It had been catching my eye for the past several visits to the grocery, so I finally broke down, but mind you, with zero expectations.....it is amazing. I got it at Whole Foods for $6.99!!! It tastes more like a Proseco to me because it is a bit frizante. Super refreshing, easy finish, very simple and light. By the way, the bottle glass is a very subtle light blue which I am definitely saving for flowers. I am thinking about going out to buy a whole case now.....
