Summer Essentials Vol. 5 – Campfire Conversations

The moment arrives when summer slows its pace.
Night falls slowly, the cool breeze calls for a blanket, and voices trade laughter for silence between sentences. There are canvas chairs in a circle, the orange light of the fire, and the glint of wine in the glasses. It is a night of pause, of deep conversations, of memories shared calmly.

It is also one of the most beautiful moments of summer: when there is no hurry for anything. When the warmth no longer comes from the sun, but from presence. And the right wine has the power to prolong that warmth with elegance and depth.

Wines for nights with friends

Conversations around the campfire, or simply in the garden.

Summer is not just made of beach and sun. It is made of these small rituals that connect us to others with time, without distractions. And wine is always the link.

Roquette & Cazes, 2022

For these serene nights, we propose a Douro wine of great nobility: the Roquette & Cazes 2022. A red wine originating in the Douro, born from the collaboration between the Portuguese Roquette family and the prestigious Bordeaux house Cazes.

This red wine is the perfect companion for a night around the campfire: complex, structured, with notes of ripe black fruit, subtle spices, and soft tannins. On the palate, it reveals a remarkable balance between strength and finesse, with a long and enveloping finish, like a good story told slowly.

It is the type of wine that calls for sharing. That tastes best when served to the sound of crackling wood. Ideal to accompany aged cheeses, roasted chestnuts, or just the moment itself.
