This cheap wine challenge started with Wine Ophelia this past week on a whim (I think).  Our task? Twitter about your favorite nationally available wine with a pricepoint of $1o and under.

So, here goes my pick (drum roll, please): Broadbent’s Vinho Verde is probably, no definitely, the best white I have had for ten clams in a while. Seriously it’s like crack and sooo easy to drink at 9% alcohol. If you’re looking for a wine this summer to quaff on the deck, at the beach, with seafood, this is your ticket to paradise. It’s slightly effervescent too, which makes it even more fun to drink.
