It has been unusually cool around here so I cracked open a bottle of Pinot Noir ! I tend to drink white in the summer months . I missed a good glass of red!

Occasionally. Most often Pinot is my jam when it comes to red. I miss wine.
Usually rose is what I drink most in the summer.

Yes! I recently came across this about drinking tempranillo in the summer:

Not as often-I reach for summery cocktails and light beers in the summer

@Septca: Pretty much
I will drink a glass of chilled Viognier or Gewürztraminer on a hot day if I have any, but I stick to mainly Cab or Pinot Noir.

@septca: Haha, yes!
It is rare for me to drink white, it's usually too sweet for my taste.

I don't discriminate against wine. All the seasons. All the wine.

If i'm in the mood, but 99 percent of the time, white and rose in the summer.

Not that I can drink now, and I don't drink a lot normally, but I'd probably do a sangria w/ red wine in the summer.

@septca: @lamariniere: yes and yes!
I drink some white in the summer (as copared to almost no white any other time of the year); but it can be hard to find good whites that are not too sugary sweet; so I mostly just stick to red.

@yoursilverlining: My go to whites are a Bourgogne Aligoté or a Sancerre. Yum!

This sounds weird, but if it's just TOO hot for red wine and we really want some, we do a "faux sangria"--it's a mixture (to your taste) of limeade and Pinot Noir! I know, it seems bizarre, but trust me, it's delicious. Get good limeade, though, not a super sugary sweet kind. It's super refreshing!

i drink much more whites and beers in the summer, whereas usually i prefer reds. i just cant do red on a hot day.

We've had a few nights out by our firepit with a bottle of red!! Its been a bit cooler lately so I've been wanting red vs white.
My summer white is any sauv blanc!

@yoursilverlining: @lamariniere: I was going to say that i like to stick to the Old World whites...not as sweet! Can't wait until this baby is out so i can have a glass of sancerre with my moules frites!
Yes, i drink red wine in the summer, usually something refreshing like a Cotes du Rhone or Pinot Noir.

@coacheswife123: You'll love it! Let me know how it turns out! (Start with little bits of limeade until you get the mixture perfect!)

@lamariniere: @Freckles: Ooh, I'll have to t ry thos eout. I love the idea of a glass of crisp, chilled white wine - - but the majority are just too sweet. I can't stand them.
@Freckles - we love Cotes du Rhone here too.

White on a hot day if we are outside, but mostly red. At 7 weeks pp, anything will do at this point

Yes, I do. Maybe not as often as in the winter but I still drink it regularly.
