Spring is the perfect time to move away from heavier winter bottles and reach for wines that feel fresh, crisp, bright, and easy to pair with seasonal food.

Think citrusy whites, dry rosé, light reds, sparkling wine, and refreshing bottles that work well with patio weather, brunch, seafood, salads, grilled chicken, and casual get-togethers.

Here are some of the best spring wines to try this season.

1. Sauvignon Blanc: Crisp and Refreshing

One of the most popular spring wines, Sauvignon Blanc is known for its bright acidity and refreshing flavors of citrus, grapefruit, green apple, and fresh herbs.

It pairs wonderfully with spring salads, seafood, goat cheese, asparagus, and grilled vegetables.

This versatile wine pairs beautifully with seafood, chicken dishes, light pasta, and fresh vegetables.

4. Riesling: A Hidden Spring Gem

Riesling often gets overlooked, but it’s one of the most versatile wines for spring. Depending on the style, it can range from dry to slightly sweet while maintaining bright acidity and refreshing fruit flavors.

It’s especially good with spicy foods, ham, Asian cuisine, and spring brunch menus.

5. Chardonnay: Rich Yet Refreshing

Spring is also a great time to enjoy Chardonnay. Lighter, unoaked styles offer crisp apple and citrus notes, while lightly oaked versions provide a touch of creaminess without feeling too heavy.

Pair Chardonnay with roasted chicken, seafood, creamy pasta dishes, and spring vegetables.

For red wine lovers, Pinot Noir is hard to beat during spring. It offers bright red fruit flavors, smooth tannins, and enough body to pair with a variety of foods without feeling heavy.

Try serving Pinot Noir slightly chilled for a refreshing spring experience.

It pairs well with salmon, roasted chicken, mushrooms, pork, and grilled vegetables.
