Summer has officially arrived. June brings longer days, warmer nights, and a sun-soaked invitation to unwind. But when the temperature rises, so does the question: what wine should you be drinking?
From poolside picnics to rooftop dinners, here are three wine styles perfect for June, along with some of our top picks—all available now at www.wineocork.com.
Rosé – The Spirit of Summer in a Glass
Nothing says summer quite like a chilled glass of rosé. With its pink hue and refreshing acidity, rosé is the go-to for sunny afternoons and seaside escapes.
Try: Malhadinha Nova Regional Rosé 2019This elegant Portuguese rosé delivers aromas of strawberry, peach, and subtle spice. Dry, crisp, and irresistibly drinkable—perfect for grilled shrimp, charcuterie, or simply soaking up the sunset.
Sparkling Wine – Because Every Day Deserves a Toast
Celebrating a graduation? Hosting brunch? Or just in the mood for something lively? A good sparkling wine brings instant joy to any occasion.
Try: Casa de Santar Vinha Dos Amores Blanc de Blancs Encruzado
Crafted in Portugal’s Vinho Verde region, this refined sparkler offers delicate bubbles with citrus blossom and green apple notes. Bright, clean, and oh-so-festive.
White Wine – Fresh, Zesty, and Food-Friendly
When your meals turn lighter, so should your wine. A crisp white wine is your best companion for seafood, salads, and summer vegetables.
Try: Deu la Deu Alvarinho
Portugal’s most celebrated Alvarinho (aka Albariño) is bursting with tropical fruit, white flowers, and a vibrant minerality that keeps every sip refreshing.
