«Spring has a mind of its own…»

The sun is still shy, but the zest for life is already making itself felt. Your heart is pounding: ‘Get out now!’ Balcony life is reawakening, the flower pots are freshly planted – and everything feels colourful and light again.
The sun is warm, but unfortunately so is the wind. You sit on the blanket, hold your glass tight and pretend that everything was planned exactly like this. Well, with the right wine in your hand, even a chilly afternoon feels like summer. The ducks quack as if they have an opinion on everything – including your outfit. A bite of the sandwich, a sip of Grüner Veltliner, and suddenly the gust of wind sounds like applause.
A good home bar is a symbol of serenity and maturity. It is particularly appreciated in those moments when conversations slow down and gain depth.
The terrace table is definitely too small. There are more people than chairs, but it doesn’t matter – someone is sitting on the wall, someone else on an upturned flowerpot. The first glass of rosé is celebrated like an official start to the season.
Everything you need is on the shelf: pasta, salt and a good bottle of house wine. A red wine as reliable as the timing for perfect al dente pasta. Deeply complex, without being overpowering – just like your circle of friends.
After work, you freeze faster than expected outside at the after-work drinks – so a spontaneous change of plan is called for: Off home, grab everyone and open this inspiring red wine. It tastes better than the house wine at the bar anyway. It’s warmer, the glass is fuller, and no one has to wonder what they should have worn.
You’re standing outside, turning sausages in the wind and pretending you’re not cold.
The upside: you’re spared the dilemma of having to choose between a cold beer and a full-bodied red wine.
...and wonder whether you should be disappointed because your colleague cancelled at short notice.
But the sofa, the peace and quiet, and the Tempranillo are actually exactly what you really want tonight.
With a ready-made spritzer in the fridge and a cosy spot in the garden, anyone can drop by – you’ll stay relaxed.
