July Wine Picks for Under $10
Orvieto is a wine region in Italy that is most often associated with a dry style of white wine here in the United States. Orvieto and Orvieto Classico are primarily Trebbiano and Grechetto blends, but may also include Malvasia, Verdello, and Canaiolo bianco.
Two of our favorite Orvieto wines are Ruffino Orvietto Classico and Badia Corti Orvietto. Ruffino has citrus, golden apple, floral and sage aromas with crisp apple, almond and minerals on the palate. Badia Corti is a bit richer in style, while still maintaining a bright, fresh taste. Light and clean, these wines are refreshing summer sippers that pair well with a wide variety of cheeses, cold salads, antipasti, or grilled fish.
