Why Gustave Lorentz Pinot Noir is the ultimate red summer wine

When temperatures rise, many wine lovers automatically think of white wine or rosé. Yet, there is another style that surprisingly comes into its own in the summer: a light, elegant Pinot Noir. And it is precisely in this that the Gustave Lorentz Pinot Noir Évidence Organic excels.

This organic Pinot Noir from Alsace proves that red wine can be delicious even on warm days — provided you choose the right style and serve it lightly chilled.

Lightly chilled red wine? Absolutely.

Many people drink red wine at room temperature as a standard, but this is not always ideal. Especially with elegant red wines like Pinot Noir, a slightly lower serving temperature ensures more freshness, vibrancy, and drinking pleasure.

The Gustave Lorentz Pinot Noir is best enjoyed at around 12 to 14 degrees Celsius. This enhances the juicy red fruit flavours and gives the wine a fresh, summery character.

Half an hour in the fridge is often sufficient. Perfect for a warm summer evening, barbecue, or a long get-together in the garden.

Elegant, smooth, and surprisingly fresh

This Pinot Noir is made from 100% organically grown Pinot Noir grapes from Alsace, around the village of Bergheim. The cool climate of this region produces elegant red wines with finesse and freshness.

In the glass, you'll taste aromas of ripe cherries, wild strawberries, and subtle earthy notes. The wine is smooth, lightly spicy, and has soft tannins, making it incredibly easy to drink. Not a heavy or ponderous red wine, but rather refined, juicy, and energetic.

This is precisely what makes this wine so suitable for summer.

Perfect for barbecues, drinks, and summer dishes

While powerful red wines can sometimes feel too heavy on warm days, this Pinot Noir remains elegant and quaffable. As a result, it pairs surprisingly well with summer dishes such as:

• Grilled chicken or turkey

• BBQ dishes

• Charcuterie and snack platters

• Grilled vegetables

• Salads with duck or chicken

• Hard cheeses

This is also a wine that easily invites a second glass during a relaxing evening on the terrace or in the garden.

Organic and vegan

In addition to its fresh style, this wine is also produced entirely organically. The vineyards of Gustave Lorentz have been organically certified since 2012. Furthermore, the wine is produced vegan.

This perfectly aligns with the modern style of wine drinking: pure, refined, and with respect for nature and terroir.

A red wine you must try this summer

Are you looking for a red wine that is delicious even in warm weather? Then the Gustave Lorentz Pinot Noir Évidence Organic is definitely a recommendation.

Lightly chilled, this elegant Pinot Noir perfectly demonstrates why red wine can also be a perfect fit for summer: fresh, juicy, refined, and incredibly quaffable.
