With the advent of summer and hotter weather, people who like to sip wine on a patio, pool deck, or picnic or simply paired with light snacks usually opt for sparkling wines, rosés, or maybe lighter whites.

One issue that can complicate buying these chillable wines is whether the wine is going to be dry or sweet. Wines that are too dry may not appeal to those people who want a simple, approachable, slightly sweeter quaff.
