Sip this crisp white wine on the patio

Welcome outdoor dining season with the 2014 Torres Verdeo Verdejo from the Rueda region of Spain, where the Torres family has made exciting wines since 1870. Crisp and slightly floral with a refreshing lime aroma, lovers of sauvignon blanc or pinot grigio will be smitten with its youth and palate-pleasing style. Pick up a bottle and head to the patio.
