Summer & wine – lightness in the glass, sunshine on the plate

Summer is a time of abundance: aromatic tomatoes, ripe peaches, fragrant herbs, fresh fish and colorful vegetables. Add to this the first glass of wine on the terrace, the smell of barbecue coals and the clink of ice cubes in the aperitif glass. In the Summer & Wine category, we show how light and enjoyable the warm season can taste.

Whether Mediterranean cuisine, light salads, grilled fish or fruity desserts – the right wine brings freshness, liveliness and elegance into play. Fresh white wines, cool rosés, orange wines with structure or a sparkling wine for a toast – everything can be a little more relaxed, breezy and light-hearted.

Perfect for long evenings, spontaneous picnics and warm nights with friends. Summer dishes & the wines to accompany them – you’ll find both here.
