Our 5 Favorite Whites to Pair with Food this Summer
White wines are ideal for pairing with summer cuisine, offering a spectrum of flavors to complement light and fresh dishes. Whether enjoying grilled seafood, fresh salads, or light pastas, their flavors enhance the seasonal ingredients and brighten outdoor dining experiences, making them perfect companions for warm weather gatherings. These are five of our favorites.
Pasini San Giovanni ll Lugana Turbiana
Italy > Veneto
Sustainable and Organic
Delicious, bright, with a bit of body and a silkier texture. Notes of fresh citrus and pear. This is a really versatile white, great on its own or with any kind of summertime spread. It's become our go-to picnic bottle.
Orr Wines Chenin Blanc Old Vine Columbia Valley
United States > Washington
Sustainable and Woman Owner/Producer
Dry and fresh, with pear and honeydew melon notes, it finishes minerally and crisp, and pairs perfectly with seafood and shellfish.
Giordano Lombardo Vigne di San Martino Gavi di Gavi
Italy > Piedmont
Sustainable, Organic, and Biodynamic
A classic, charming Gavi di Gavi. Fresh hay aroma and acacia flowers. Fresh and soft, with long and pleasant ending. Light minerality.
I Custodi Etna Bianco Aedes
Italy > Sicily
Sustainable and Organic
Made with organically-farmed Albarello. Notes of bright citrus mix with volcanic minerality, all with a rich and silky core.
Ryme Cellars Vermentino Hers Carneros
United States > California
Sustainable, Organic, and Woman Owner/Producer
This vermentino is a perennial favorite. Versatile with food or as an aperitif. Mineral driven with green notes like lime zest, with a slight richness to the finish.
