It's Warm Out Now, So You Must Drink These 15 Sweet Wines All Summer (2024)

I'm sure there are people out there who disagree, but I truly believe there's nothing more delicious in this world than a glass of some sweet wine on a hot day. Sure, the dry, oaky wines may be better suited for the palettes of sommeliers and oenophiles (aka an actual wine connoisseur, yes the two are different), but what's not to love about drinking something that tastes like a dessert? Please refrain from answering if you're one of those "savory >> sweet" people...

When you're lounging on the beach in the grueling heat or hosting a summer BBQ, you won't find yourself craving a chardonnay! You'll want the sweet, refreshing taste of chilled rosé or a delish Moscato. Speaking of beaches, we think the second option on this list will be your new go-to for the next couple of months. And may I also suggest taking some of the canned options to the park with you the next time you play hooky?

Whether you're into drinking sweet wines year-round or are firmly a summer-only sugary human, you'll find the best sweet wines cash can buy below. Read (and drink!) on!

The brand behind this gorge sparkling rosé is completely organic, transparently produced, and was founded by Cameron Diaz and her bestie Katherine Power.

Hear us out: While this wine isn't sweet-sweet, it's just light and fruity enough to please just about any palate (picky or refined). Pour out a *crisp* glass of this refreshing rosé on your next beach day, or stash a bottle in your bag and bring it to your next gals night in.

A moscato that will change the mind of even the most stubborn sweet wine haters! It's a little drier than the rest of this list, but mix it with some fruit and seltzer to make a delish co*cktail for the ultimate summer drink.

Why have I not been drinking this my whole life?? Rosé + lemonade = a true match made in heaven. You'll soon find yourself ditching the spiked seltzers. (Yup, I said it!)

When you're ready to graduate from Franzia boxed red (ILY FOREVER), pick up this sophisticated port. It has notes of cinnamon that make it perfect for literally any season.

This fruit-forward pinot grigio is perfect for your summer dinner parties. V affordable, sweet, light, and pairs well with...pretty much anything? Sign me up.

Your next beach day needs this yummy sweet sip. On top of the A+ rosé inside, imagine how cute this flower-decorated can will look in your Insta pics.

You don't need to spend all day making a pitcher of sangria. This delicious bottle does all the work. Add some orange slices and your friends will think you made this yourself.

ICYMI, pink pinot grigio is a thing! A perfect pick for when you want something slightly on the dry side and don't fully want to commit to rosé. Oh, and it's made by none other than Mary J Blige.

All your toast-worthy moments will be even sweeter when you get this pink champagne flowing thanks to the notes of raspberry.

It can be tough to measure out the perfect amount, but this rosé comes in a small bottle that equals one glass. Ideal for any picnics or BYOB parties where you reallyyyyy don't want to share.

You can think of this canned beverage as the grown-up version of popsicles. No, seriously! There's a slight watermelon sorbet taste to it and if that doesn't sell you on it I don't know what will.

This riesling has notes of the ripest peaches you could possibly buy at a farm stand and tastes just as delightful as the fruit itself. A true win for anyone who loves happiness.

You haven't really enjoyed moscato until you've had this one from Cupcake. It's sweeter than the actual dessert and, IMO, tastes waaaaay better. Plus, it's booze!

There's a reason why this one's a best seller: Like a lot of other rosés, it's not overwhelmingly sweet but still satisfies every sugary craving. You'll never catch me at a dinner party without it.
