They're great outdoors: wines to drink with a barbecue | Hannah Crosbie on drinks
Briefly

Choosing the right wine for a barbecue is essential, especially in London where garden parties are valued. A red Cotes du Rhone is suggested for its ability to be enjoyed slightly chilled, compatibility with barbecue foods, and affordability. Beyond traditional options, there is value found in exploring lesser-known wines for enhancing the experience. Recommendations emphasize matching the wine to the occasion rather than just the food, with sparkling wines being a valid pairing choice.
Cotes du Rhone is sublime when drunk slightly chilled, pairs well with most barbecue foods, and is affordable enough to buy multiple bottles.
Expanding beyond obvious pulls for wine at barbecues leads to unexpected but satisfying pairings that enhance the experience.
