As we know, a good wine can become the protagonist of any event. That is why you should choose a good one, that suits the situation you are in. So the question is what are the most suitable wines for summer days?.
A good white wine, here we find a Sauvignon Blanc. The characteristic of this wine is that it is fruity and with floral and citrus aromas. They are refreshing to the mouth if they are kept cold, and are perfect for summer nights.

Pink wine. Although this type of wine was considered for a long time as inferior, it has shown that its quality can be equal to or even higher than that of other types of wine. It is ideal for its freshness and its fruity aroma.
The sparkling wine If the white wine itself is already refreshing to the mouth, the sparkling wine is even more so. The gases in the form of bubbles that they contain, make them especially fresh if they are kept cold.
Red wine. This is the great protagonist of all the tables at any time of the year. Although, for many wine lovers, summer is not a good partner for red wines, this one can be a good companion …. even in summer. Ideally, drink it in the afternoon or late at night, as it is not as refreshing as previous wines.

The recommended temperatures for the different wines during the summer:
For white and rosé wines, the ideal temperature fluctuates between 9 and 12º C, depending on whether it is young (10º C) or barrel (12º C). And it is recommended to keep them in a bucket with ice water.
In the case of red wine, the recommendation suggests keeping it between 16 and 18º C.

Finally, we want to add that these are only recommendations, since the taste for wine and the way to enjoy it depends on the tastes of each person.
