White Wines That Shine in Fall
As we start to settle into Fall, transitional white wines offer the perfect balance between the bright acidity of summer whites and the richer, fuller-bodied styles often enjoyed in colder months. With flavors like ripe pear, baked apple, and a touch of spice, these whites pair wonderfully with autumn's heartier dishes. Their refreshing acidity cuts through richer fare, while their layered complexity makes them ideal for cozy fall evenings.
