Light Wine

[wondersofwine]

As Innkeeper (IK) indicated, some white wines are dry (not sweet) such as Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay. It's just that you can find sweet white wines (some Riesling, Chenin Blanc, Vouvray, Moscati) where there are fewer sweet red wines. For a lighter bodied red wine you might try Beaujolais Villages (from the Gamay grape) or Merlot. For a white wine you might try German Riesling at the Kabinett level or a Sauvignon Blanc. I'll leave it to someone else to suggest a sparkling wine.
