Summer sun, cool water… and a glass in hand! Whether you prefer a light rosé, a crisp white or a festive sparkling wine, here are our recommendations for wines that are perfect to sip by, or in !, the pool.
Fresh and light rosés: the summer essential
Rosé is the undisputed king of sunny afternoons. Its freshness and fruity aromas make it the natural poolside companion. Serve between 8 and 10°C.
- Côtes de Provence - Elegant cuvées with notes of citrus and red fruits, pale and wonderfully thirst-quenching.
- Languedoc rosé - Generous and expressive, perfect for a sunny aperitif by the water.
- Tavel (Rhône Valley) - A more structured rosé, ideal alongside a tapas platter at the pool's edge.
Crisp and refreshing whites: freshness first
A good dry, aromatic white is ideal for cooling down without weighing down the palate. Serve between 8 and 10°C.
- Picpoul de Pinet (Languedoc) - Intensely fresh, with citrus notes and a lively, almost saline finish.
- Sauvignon Blanc - Its citrus and floral aromas make it an essential summer white, irresistible by the pool.
- Chardonnay and Rolle - Two grape varieties featured in the selection, round and refreshing, perfect for long sunny afternoons.
Sparkling wines: festive poolside vibes
A glass of bubbles by the pool ? Nothing beats it for a light, celebratory moment. Serve between 6 and 8°C.
- Crémant de Bordeaux - Fresh and refined, an elegant alternative to Champagne for a successful aperitif.
- Natural pétillant - Less dosage, more character — ideal for lovers of organic and natural wines.

Frequently asked questions about poolside wines
What wine should you drink by the pool ?
The best poolside wines are light, fresh Provence rosés, crisp whites based on Sauvignon or Picpoul de Pinet, and festive sparkling wines. The key is low alcohol, thirst-quenching character and serving temperature: between 6 and 10°C depending on the style. Avoid tannic reds and overly oaked whites in the heat.
At what temperature should poolside wines be served ?
Rosé and white: 8 to 10°C. Sparkling wines and bubbles: 6 to 8°C. In full sun, an ice bucket is essential, wine that warms up quickly loses all its freshness and appeal. Take the bottle out of the fridge at the last possible moment.
Can you drink red wine by the pool ?
Yes, as long as you choose a very light red, such as a Beaujolais Fleurie or a Gamay-based wine, served slightly chilled between 14 and 16°C. Full-bodied, tannic reds feel heavy in the heat and don't suit the relaxed pleasure of poolside drinking.
What is a "rosé piscine" ?
A rosé piscine is a rosé served over ice, often garnished with a slice of grapefruit or citrus. This popular summer format, widespread in the South of France, keeps the wine fresh despite the heat. Choose a light, fruity Provence or Languedoc rosé for the best result.
Why buy poolside wines direct from the producer ?
On Avenue des Vins, every bottle is shipped directly from the winemaker's cellar, vintage freshness guaranteed, full traceability and fair pricing with no middleman. For wines enjoyed chilled by the pool, the quality of storage and cold chain management makes all the difference.
