Wine

Here's what sourcing from vines 75 to 112 years old can get you: alluring floral and fruit aromas, lush stone-fruit flavors and a rich but lively mouthfeel and finish. The 2011 Shaya Rueda Verdejo ($15) deftly toes the line between plush and refreshing, hearty and crisp. This Spanish white sings with simple seafood preparations, but also would play well with many of the dishes at a certain feast looming this Thursday. Available at 1st Grand, Sorella, Elevated, Costco (Burnsville, Maple Grove, St. Louis Park), Hy-Vee (Rochester), Surdyk's and others.
