Summer is the season for evening picnics, leisurely strolls, and long conversations with loved ones. When the heat subsides and seasonal vegetables, cheese, shashlik, or berry desserts appear on the table, you want to open a bottle of wine: not too heavy, but with character, not boring, but without pretensions. The dish it pairs with will depend on the wine you choose. What to drink and what to eat for the wine to reveal its full bouquet was told by the EKO MARKET supermarket chain, as reported by UNN.
Summer classic – Radacini Sauvignon Blanc
White dry Moldovan wine Radacini Sauvignon Blanc is a pure summer classic. Light, fresh, with notes of citrus and green apple.

Dry Chilean – Casillero del Diablo Carmenere
Dry Chilean wine Casillero del Diablo Carmenere is ideal for those who do not betray red wine even in summer. It is a deep, spicy, and rich wine with notes of dark berries and light tannins.

Pomegranate Georgian – in the character of Kakheturi Pomegranate Red
Fruity semi-sweet Kakheturi Pomegranate Red is the most unexpected choice in the selection. Pomegranate wine is bright, berry, sweetish, with an oriental trail.
