Which wine to choose with your grilled dishes?

Barbecues are synonymous with conviviality, with shared moments around a variety of grilled foods. Whether it's red meat, white meat, fish, or vegetables, each dish calls for a specific wine to reveal all its flavors. For grilled red meats like beef or lamb, opt for round and full-bodied red wines. Appellations such as AOC Côtes-du-Rhône, AOC Bordeaux, or AOC Languedoc are excellent choices with their spicy notes and velvety tannins.

For white meats like chicken or sausages, favor lighter red wines or rosés. A light red wine from the Loire or a fruity rosé from Provence with fresh aromas will perfectly complement your poultry skewers or grilled pork.

The perfect wine for grilled fish and vegetables

Grilled fish and seafood, such as sardines, sea bream, or prawns, pair wonderfully with dry and crisp white wines. Wines like Sancerre or a white wine from Provence with citrus notes will bring a touch of freshness that will surely enhance your grilled fish. As for grilled vegetables, they are best enjoyed with fruity rosé wines featuring red fruit and citrus aromas.

Whether you are a fan of red, white, rosé, or sparkling wines, we have the ideal bottle to enhance your grilled dishes.
