Wine in summer: tips for the warm months
Drinking wine in summer is by no means as important as it is in colder months. This is due to the summer activities. Drinking on the terrace or in the garden at a barbecue evening with friends is simply something different than in the living room when it is wet and cold outside. In
summer
,
wines are more of an accessory
. For this reason, wines shouldn't be in the foreground in summer. A wine should therefore not be too heavy, but also not complex.
A well-
chilled white wine
provides the perfect refreshment in summer temperatures. You get fruity and light aromas with
cooler rosé wines
. Above all, rosé is perfect for grilling. Summer is associated with both wines. They are simple, light and provide the necessary refreshment. Are red wines therefore taboo in summer?
Red wines are not "forbidden" in summer!
The selection depends on the
characteristics of the wine
.
It should of course be lighter and not have that much volume with a high alcohol content.
Choose aromatic and fruity red wines, they should not necessarily have more than 13 percent alcohol.
So it is not the color that is decisive, but the properties of whether a wine is suitable for summer.
Aroma, fruit and freshness are therefore important for the "terrace wines".
This is the way to end a day lively.
