A lot of people approach the arrival of spring with the spirit of renewal, and the change in season also influences what we choose to sip on. CBC's wine columnist Barbara Philip has picked out some new, light and fresh wines to welcome spring. "It's a change of attitude… there's light in the evening. There's light around aperitif time or dinner time, so that makes me think of a whole different set of wine opportunities," Philip told On The Coast host Gloria Macarenko. Philip says to look for fresh and springy flavours, including pear and white flowers in this 2017 vintage.
