The intense heat has arrived and what we want is to cool off with something cool. Do you know that there are great wines to drink in summer?
We will now give you some tips on how to choose the right wine to drink in summer, but remember, the most important thing will always be the temperature at which you drink the wine.

• Low temperature

It is important at this time of the year to look for cold drinks to refresh ourselves, therefore, when we talk about wine, we have to take into account that we have to pay special attention to the serving temperature of the wine.

To do this, what we will do with the wines will be to drink them cooler than usual in order to be able to enjoy them. We recommend drinking white and rosé wines very cold and red wines, we recommend drinking them chilled, that is to say, we will not drink a red wine at 5º, but we can drink it at around 10-12º.

There are several aspects that a "WineLover" has to take into account when it comes to how to chill a wine, since putting ice, in this case... would be a mistake, as we would lose aromas and flavours of the wine. But as an alternative we can use ice that does not melt, such as reusable ice cubes. These will cool our wine, but will not fill it with water.

• Choosing appropriate wines

It is also important to choose the right wines for this time of the year. It is advisable to choose lighter wines such as young white wines and rosé wines. If we choose a red wine, we will also try to make it a young wine and at this time of the year, we will try to avoid all those wines that have had a long ageing process.

It is advisable to choose this type of wine because they tend to be more acidic and, therefore, more refreshing. These wines, both white and rosé, are usually wines with a lower alcohol content.
