A FEW WEEKS AGO, I went shopping for a wine that could make me laugh. And if not laugh, then at least smile a bit.

I don’t mean cheap, cheerful plonk with catchy names and cartoon animals on the labels (though I found plenty of those) but, rather, wines from talented producers who happen to have a sense of humor. It seemed a fitting endeavor for this time of year, when many people are looking to drink lighter wines. Why not a wine that’s lighthearted too?
