12 Great White Wines Under $10

With the news that the U.S. just had its hottest March ever, it’s beginning to feel a lot like we skipped right over spring. And while I still drink plenty of red wine in summer, there’s something awfully refreshing about sharing a nice, chilled white wine while sitting on the deck on a hot summer day. It is with that thought in mind that I give you some of my favorite white wines under $10! The best part is that not only will these wines refresh, but are they quite easy on your pocketbook.

2010 Familia Zuccardi Santa Julia+ Torrontés
If you haven’t jumped on the Torrontés train yet, what are you waiting for? This is really a perfect variety for summer sipping. The Santa Julia Plus is not only light and crisp, but also sustainably farmed. Quite a deal for only $9.

2010 Barone Fini Valdadige Pinot Grigio
