Style – Aromatic + Textured

With the sun beaming down and Summer finally feeling like it’s in full swing, we thought it was time to shout about some of our favourite kinds of wine to drink in the sun:
Pink and red chillers!
People often ask us about the lesser-known ‘red-chiller’ category, unsure of which wines best suit some time on ice. So, we thought we’d line up some of our favourites to take the guesswork out for you.
From the light, mineral driven rosé’s we know and love, to wild rosados with a little more flesh on their bones, we’ve got deep pet-nat rosé, juicy light reds and category defying field blends.
Thirst-quenching bottles best enjoyed straight from the ice bucket, drunk perfectly chilled.
That’s your picnic-wine sorted!

Martin Hirsch
Grubersbuckel 2023

A gorgeous sunset crush in the glass, the inclusion of the skins placing this wine somewhere between pink and orange in both appearance and character. All peaches and cream, citrus peels and spice, the tannins are delicately extracted and this grippy texture persists well into the finish. Find out more.

La Grange Du Nord
Par les Dunes 2021 MAGNUM

Small quantities of this sensational wine in magnum only. Another Grenache-dominated cuvée, the remaining 10% being a mix of Clairette, Carignan, Syrah and Cinsault each in micro quantities to enhance the blend. With a pretty, elevated perfume melding the floral and the herbaceous, as ever, the texture of the wine is supple and elegant, with fine-grained tannins that melt away rather than attack.

Olivier Cousin
Enfin du Vin 2024

Feeling that the 2024 harvest from the prized Le Franc vineyard was not suited to the usual barrel treatment, Olivier decided to vinify this fruit in a similar way to Pur Breton - the results are superb and possess the vibrant energy of a primeur. Find out more.

Martin Hirsch
Vom Siebenerlei 2023

A vibrant cherry red in the glass, it is a light-bodied Rotwein that demands to be served chilled. Lifted, open and fresh, the fruits meld damson and redcurrant with herbal notes of hibiscus flowers. A wine that very much gives you a feel for the deceptively long, hot summers that can be found in this lesser-sung Bavarian wine region. Find out more.

Didier & Jules Grappe
Pif Purple 2024

Another of Didier's wines from hybrid vines, here using the white Seyve Villard in a co-fermentation with the red Léon Millot varietal. It is amazing to see how this wine takes on the characteristics of a Jura red regardless. It has the translucent appearance, ethereal quality and exotic aromatics one might associate with the more expressive examples of Trousseau or Poulsard. Find out more.
