Beat the Heat: The Best Wine to Drink in Warm Weather
Summer is here, and there's nothing quite like enjoying a chilled glass of wine on a warm evening. Whether you're hosting a barbecue, lounging by the pool, or simply unwinding after a long day, the right wine can make all the difference. In this blog post, we’ll explore some of the best wines to enjoy in warm weather, with a special focus on five fantastic selections from our online wine store.
The Importance of Choosing the Right Wine for Warm Weather
Warm weather calls for wines that are light, refreshing, and easy to drink. You want something that won't overpower your palate but will still offer plenty of flavour and complexity. Here are some key characteristics to look for in summer wines:
Low Tannins: Tannins can make a wine feel heavy and drying, which is less desirable in hot weather.
Chilled Serving Temperature: Most summer wines are best enjoyed chilled, between 7-13°C.
