  Light Bodied

  Light and crisp, often with higher acidity, these wines, whether red, white or rosé, pair well with vegetables, seafood and lighter meats.

  Meet the CoolVines Wine Geek!  He’ll guide you toward – or away from! - wines that have a unique flavor profile: intentionally oxidized wines, earthy, stinky wines, wines with a bit of fritz on the tongue.  Look for him throughout our web site, and on the shelves in our stores, to point the way toward these geeky wines.
