For those dreaming of France, Tom recommends the Specially Selected Picpoul de Pinet €9.99, a zingy, dry and refreshing white inspired by leisurely seafood lunches on sun-drenched quaysides in the south of France. For a classic French red experience, Chassaux & Fils Côtes du Rhône €7.99 pairs perfectly with charcuterie and cornichons, evoking the charm of a traditional neighbourhood café.

For a taste of Spain, Tom recommends two wines inspired by some of the country’s best-loved food traditions. Baron Amarillo Rioja Reserva €8.99 is a classic pairing for grilled meats, while Rías Baixas Albariño €11.49 reflects Spain’s passion for fresh fish and shellfish.

Inspired by Italy’s relaxed approach to food and wine, Tom’s picks two classic styles. Chianti Governo €9.99 pairs beautifully with seasonal dishes, while Specially Selected Gavi €9.99 delivers fresh, dry flavours and exceptional versatility at the table.

Portugal’s rich food and wine culture inspires Tom’s next recommendations. The country’s famous Vinho Verde €7.69 is light, refreshing and perfectly suited to seafood, while Animus Douro Reserva €8.99 reflects the character of the dramatic Douro Valley and pairs beautifully with grilled meats and hearty dishes.

Rounding off the journey in Greece, Tom recommends Athlon Assyrtiko €9.99, a vibrant white made from one of the country’s most celebrated native grape varieties. Balancing ripe fruit flavours with refreshing acidity, it is an ideal accompaniment to grilled fish, Mediterranean dishes and relaxed summer dining.

Whether you’re hosting a barbecue, enjoying a long summer lunch or simply looking to bring a taste of Europe home, Tom Doorley’s carefully curated wine selection offers the perfect companion for every summer occasion. Available in ALDI stores nationwide.
