Found It!

The quest to replace the beloved everyday Barefoot wine is finally over.   After trying just about every high value wine from our local wine store we finally found it. It took a visit downtown to one of our favorite wine bars, VNO. I sampled Broad Bent, a Vinho Verde from Portugal.  And, well, hmmm, tasty!

The sun was shining and the air was warm so we grabbed an outdoor seat and ordered a bottle. Crisp, soft with a little effervescence. We grabbed a few extra to take home.

Once we got home we realized the wine was low octane, even better I thought, 9%. I can drink this with dinner on a school night and not feel guilty.  

We're still sampling other Vinho Verdes to find the best one. More to follow.
