Which wine should you choose to pair with your barbecue?

Barbecue is synonymous with conviviality and shared moments around a variety of grilled dishes. Red meats, white meats, fish or vegetables, each dish calls for a specific wine to reveal all its flavors. To accompany grilled red meats such as beef or lamb, opt for round and full-bodied red wines. Appellations such as Côtes-du-Rhône AOC, Bordeaux AOC or Languedoc AOC are perfect choices, with their spicy notes and velvety tannins.

For white meats such as chicken or sausages, choose light red wines or rosé wines. A Loire red wine or a Provence rosé with fruity aromas and fresh character will perfectly complement 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 lively white wines. Wines such as Sancerre or a Provence white wine with citrus notes will bring a refreshing touch that enhances your grilled fish. As for grilled vegetables, they are best enjoyed with fruity rosé wines featuring aromas of red berries and citrus fruits.

Our tips for successful wine and barbecue pairings

Consider marinades and spices

Marinades strongly influence wine selection. A herb or lemon marinade pairs perfectly with an Alsace Riesling or a fresh white wine. A sweet-and-savory marinade works better with a rosé wine for barbecue or a light red. For spicy grilled dishes, choose a structured wine such as a Rhône Valley wine.

Serving temperature: a key factor in summer

In summer, wines warm up quickly. Serve your reds slightly chilled (14–16°C), especially barbecue red wines available in our selection of red wines for barbecue. Rosé and white wines should be served between 8 and 10°C to preserve their freshness.

Dare to try sparkling wines at a barbecue

A crémant or sparkling wine is an excellent option to pair with prawns, grilled vegetables or fish. The freshness of the bubbles contrasts perfectly with the smoky flavors of the barbecue.
