Vin pour Pique-nique & Al Fresco 🧺🇫🇷
There's a certain art to the French picnic — un déjeuner sur l'herbe, unhurried, with good food, good wine, and good company under the sun. This summer, bring that joie de vivre to your own outdoor table (or just your balcony) 🍷
Here's how we'd pair it:
🥧 Quiche Lorraine → a crisp, chilled Sauvignon Blanc or Pet Nat — the bright acidity cuts through the richness of the egg and cream
🥖 Pâté & charcuterie pies → a light, fruity rosé from Provence — France's classic picnic wine, built for sipping in the sun
🍖 BBQ mains (grilled meats, sausages) → a chilled Beaujolais or light Pinot Noir ( try alternative like Gamay or Mondeuse) — juicy, low-tannin reds that won't fight the smoke and char
🧀 Cheese board → a classic Northern Rhone Rhône or easy-going Côtes du Rhône — versatile enough to handle everything from soft brie to aged comté
The rule of French al fresco dining: keep it simple, keep it chilled, and always bring an extra bottle 😉
PS: we have small format bottles for you!
