The nights still invite you to stay outside a little longer, and your glass still calls for ice. Summer dinners keep happening, week after week, whenever there’s time, good company and a wish to keep the conversation going after the last bite.<\/p>\n
There’s no need to wait for a special occasion. A summer dinner can come from a last-minute invitation, a table booked weeks ago, or any evening when nobody felt like heading home early. The question is always the same: which Casal Garcia<\/a> should you bring to the table? The answer depends on the kind of dinner.<\/p>\n Here’s your guide, no fuss.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”padding-3-percent” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”top” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default”][vc_column_text el_class=”numbered-title”]\n Serve it well chilled, in a wide glass. It goes with everything that usually turns up at an outdoor table: tapas, light cheeses, salads. It’s the wine that turns an ordinary dinner into a moment to remember.<\/p>\n A simple tip: fill the ice bucket before your guests arrive. That way, the Ros\u00e9<\/a> stays at the right temperature from the first glass to the last, and you won’t have to break off the conversation to run back to the kitchen.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”padding-3-percent” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”top” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default”][vc_column_text el_class=”numbered-title”]\n If anyone prefers something softer and sweeter, Casal Garcia Sweet White<\/a> is for those who love laid-back moments.<\/p>\n Some dinners call for fewer trips to the kitchen and more time at the table. With a bottle of each on the table, every guest picks what they feel like, and nobody has to keep asking who wants more of what.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text el_class=”numbered-title”]\n For those who prefer an individual glass that’s fruitier and easy to drink, the Fruitzy<\/a> range follows the same idea: it has a lower alcohol content and needs no preparation at all. It’s a flavoured wine-based cocktail with its own identity within the Casal Garcia range. For a relaxed evening, it’s always a safe bet.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text el_class=”numbered-title”]\n With Sangria, ice is part of the serving itself (and the more, the better). The Ros\u00e9, Branco, Sweet Branco and Loureiro wines simply need to be well chilled before they reach the table; after that, an ice bucket nearby keeps everything just right until the final toast. As for Fruitzy, we suggest serving it well chilled, with fruit in the glass, to add even more colour, freshness and flavour to every moment.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text el_class=”numbered-title”]\n The idea isn’t to come up with a new menu for every dinner, but to look at what’s already planned and choose the drink that suits it best.

If dinner is outdoors and the sun is still high when the table is set, Casal Garcia Ros\u00e9<\/a> is the right choice. Vibrant, with distinct notes of strawberry and raspberry, it pairs gentle sweetness with an acidity that refreshes with every sip. It’s the king of sunsets and small bites.<\/p>\n
Dinner with friends, around the table, in no hurry to finish<\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]When the dinner is the reason for getting together (a set table, a long conversation, nobody checking the time), the classic Casal Garcia White<\/a> is the right companion. Fresh, young and fruity, with a crisp acidity that everyone at the table enjoys. It pairs especially well with seafood, fish and warm nights.<\/p>\n
Last-minute dinner, with no time to plan<\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]More people turned up than you expected? The bottle you’d planned on won’t stretch far enough? Casal Garcia Sangria White<\/a> or Casal Garcia Sangria Red<\/a>\u00a0will solve the problem: they’re ready to serve, so all you need is a big jug, plenty of ice and a few slices of fruit. They serve the whole group without you having to open bottle after bottle, and even if they haven’t spent hours in the fridge, the ice takes care of the rest.<\/p>\n
For those who already know the range and want to mix things up<\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]If you’ve already tried the classics and want to surprise at the table, Casal Garcia Loureiro<\/a> is the right choice. Made exclusively with the Loureiro grape variety, it’s floral and aromatic – a great way to share Casal Garcia’s versatility with friends.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text el_class=”numbered-title”]\n
How to keep everything chilled until the end of the night<\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]A summer dinner only goes well if your glass stays cool from start to finish, even with the heat still lingering. There’s no need to overcomplicate it: a bucket or cooler full of ice near the table takes care of almost everything, so you won’t have to interrupt the evening to fetch another cold bottle from the kitchen.<\/p>\n
Food pairing: what to bring to the table alongside your glass<\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]You don’t need a new recipe for every dinner, just a sense of what goes well with what’s already in your fridge. Casal Garcia Branco and Casal Garcia Loureiro get along nicely with grilled fish, seafood and fresh salads. Casal Garcia Ros\u00e9 goes with small bites, light cheeses and sharing boards, no fuss required. The Sangrias call for fresh fruit right in the jug and salty snacks close at hand. And Fruitzy works on its own, as an aperitif or alongside anything light, always with fruit in the glass.<\/p>\n
In the end, what matters is a full table<\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]At the end of the day, there’s no single right wine for summer<\/a>. Outdoors, among friends or at the last minute, Casal Garcia always has an answer ready to open. What matters is that the table keeps filling up with good company while summer still lasts.<\/p>\n
