Style, Swirl, and Sip: The Best Summer Winery Outfits

Summer winery outfits and summer vineyard outfits you will want to wear on your next wine tour. All in all, summer is the best time to visit a wine cellar! There is no better place to escape from the heat than a cellar. Pov, there are only a few places with better AC in Europe! But finding the ideal outfit for a wine tasting tour in summer can be exciting. Scroll down to see some of my recent inspiring summer winery outfits that are all smart and comfortable. Ps. Wine tasting is not the same as wine drinking. We only take one sip (at least I do) and not an entire glass. The goal is to taste the aroma, not drink alcohol.

Picture this: Sun-drenched vineyards stretching to the horizon, the gentle clink of glasses, and the rich aroma of oak barrels wafting through cool cellars.

Summer is the perfect season to visit vineyards and prominent wine cellars, and what better way to enhance your experience than with the perfect summer winery outfit?

Dressing for a wine tasting tour can be challenging. Whether you’re planning a weekend getaway to a vineyard in Napa, Champagne or a spontaneous visit to your local winery, putting together the best summer winery outfit is required. 

Pov, wineries do have a dress code – sometimes unwritten but you will never escape the looks if you show up to a winery underdressed or too coquette.

Btw, you can get the winery dress code guide on Brunette from Wall Street substack. It’s for paid subscribers, only, but go and get it if you are visiting more than five wineries and you need more than just five summer winery outfits.

As mentioned earlier, I’m sharing five summer wine tasting tour outfits for you in this article – I’m showing you four summer winery outfits I wore on wine tasting tour in June. My parents and I visit around 10 different wineries every summer. And one from our family’s vineyard. The last winery outfit is from the trip I went to recently with a group of architects. It was so fun. We started our trip in the city, walked around, went to the construction site, a few museums and many other interesting spots before ending our day at the winery. So yes, it was a proper tourist day. 

Of course, my goal is to list all the summer wine-tasting tour outfits I have ever worn in this article. But I have only started documenting my summer winery looks four years ago, so we only have four plus one looks documented so far. Anyway, more are to come!

FANCY SUMMER WINE TASTING OUTFIT FOR WINERY TOUR IN FRANCE

There is a certain joy that only a dress can spark. For a wine tasting in France, put on a short sleeve mini tweed dress and espadrilles.

BLACK SHORT TWEED DRESS WITH ESPADRILLE WEDGES

Step next to AC and imagine how the temperature drops noticeably as you enter the wine cellar. The air is thick with the earthy scent of oak and the faint, sweet aroma of fermenting grapes.

You pass by massive stainless steel tanks. Sadly, their surfaces won’t reflect your stunning new tweed dress, but rest assured, everyone around you will compliment you on your dress as you move deeper into the cellar.

The barrel room opens before you. It is filled with rows upon rows of oak barrels. Some of them are accessorised with a painting, some not yet.

The sommelier’s voice resonates in the space as they begin the tour, explaining the aging process and the impact of oak on different varietals.

As the tasting begins, you lift the first glass, a crisp Chardonnay. The sommelier instructs you to first observe the color – a pale gold that catches the light beautifully. You swirl gently, watching as the wine’s legs form and fall along the glass.

Bringing the glass to your nose, you inhale deeply. Notes of apple and peach dance with subtle hints of vanilla and pineapple. You might even taste melon and toast from the oak aging.

You take a small sip, letting it coat your palate. The wine is alive with flavors – bright fruit up front, followed by a creamy texture and a long, mineral finish.

Moving on to a bold red, you notice how the cellar’s dim lighting accentuates the deep ruby color in your glass. This time, the aroma is more intense – ripe berries, a touch of plum jam, and a whisper of chocolate. The taste is complex, layers of fruit and tannin unfolding as you savor that small sip.

BOUJEE SUMMER WINERY OUTFITS FOR WINE CELLAR TOUR IN SUMMER

Stylish tweeds make for double the fun at wineries. Boujee with a belt, the summer tweed minis are one of our most-loved designs. From sparkling tweed (or bounclé) to ornate lace, explore all the variations of boujee summer fits.

SHORT SLEEVE MINI TWEED BUTTER YELLOW DRESS WITH ESPADRILLES

Before heading outside, pause to admire a unique feature of the winery – the collection of painted barrels. Pov, you will find art in every exceptional wine cellar. Look for oak barrels that have been transformed into a canvas, showcasing spirited works by renowned artists.

You might spot a barrel adorned with swirling, Van Gogh-inspired sunflowers, its bold yellows and blues striking contrast to the deep brown of the oak.

Another might catch your eye with a Modigliani-esque portrait, the elongated features seeming to observe the cellar with quiet dignity.

But as you make your way outside, the vista before you takes your breath away. Rolling hills covered in neat rows of vines stretch as far as the eye can see. The green leaves glowing in the early afternoon light. And the smell, Oh you can smell cherries.

Cherry trees punctuate the landscape, reaching towards the cloudless blue sky.

You find a quiet spot on the balcony with an ineffable view and lift your glass – red again.

BOHO LUXURY SUMMER WINERY OUTFIT FOR SUMMER WINE TASTING IN ITALY

As you type in your upcoming wine tasting tour, ensure a summer dress with long sleeves and espadrilles are on your checklist, too. Espadrilles and a long sleeve summer dress are the quintessential fit for summer attire for the vineyard.

Wine cellars tend to stay cool year-round and you need a layer that won’t weigh you down as you step outside to enjoy the wine.

WHITE LONG SLEEVE SHORT DRESS WITH BLACK ESPADRILLES

As you savor the wine, your eyes roam over the vineyards. You spot workers tending to the vines in the distance.

CHERRY CODED RED PUFF SLEEVE SHORT DRESS WITH ANKLE BOOTS

While you will need to stay on the balcony, looking at the wines and handsome young boys with a rizz, I can step into the vineyard whenever I want.

But, let’s put you there, too – for the plot.

Imagine stepping into the vineyard, gravel crunching under your cowboy boots. Your red dress with puff sleeves sways lightly in the breeze. The sun rises, tossing a golden glow over rows of lush vines.

Sweet, tangy grape scents mingle with earthy soil and faint wild lavender. A gentle breeze rustles the leaves, as you wander between the rows. 

Sunlight filters through the canopy, scattering dappled shadows on the grass. The earth feels cool and damp beneath your boots, soothing against the morning’s warmth.

Birds sing softly, and the melody blends with distant laughter from the winery patio. Your fingers brush velvety leaves and baby grape clusters.

You find a quiet spot and sit on the soft grass, leaning against a sturdy vine support. Rough bark presses against your back, grounding you. You close your eyes. Sunlight warms your face. Contentment washes over you, time pausing just for this moment.

Suddenly, a figure catches your eye. A tall, lean man moves among the vines, gently removing leaves to let sunlight kiss the grapes. His light hair gleams, hands working with tender precision. Your heart skips. His focus feels magnetic.

You step closer, boots stirring the earth. He looks up, blue eyes warm and inviting. “Beautiful morning, isn’t it?” he says, voice smooth as aged wine.

“It is,” you reply, cheeks flushing. “What are you doing?”

“Helping the grapes,” he says, holding up a leaf. “More light helps them ripen. Keeps them healthy, too.”

“That’s fascinating,” you say, drawn to his passion. “It must feel special, working here.”

He smiles, a dimple flashing. “It does. I’m M…”

“Nice to meet you,” you say, smiling back.

“Want to see my favorite spot?” he asks, with a spark in his eyes.

CHIC CASUAL SUMMER WINERY OUTFITS

New options for dressing up come with chic fits. Inject fresh momentum into your winery visits with a white T-shirt and navy blue trousers.

5 WHITE T-SHIRT WITH NAVY BLUE TROUSERS AND GOLDEN BALLET FLATS WITH A HEADBAND

You stand by the tall windows of the tasting room, watching the vineyard above. Your wine glass catches the light, the red inside mirroring the warm glow that bathes everything in cherry coded hue.

Before you stretches a magnificent hill, completely carpeted in neat rows of vines that climb toward the sky in perfect geometric lines. The vineyard seems to flow like green water up the slope. With rows catching different angles of light, creating a tapestry of emerald and gold that takes your breath away.

The air conditioning hums softly, while the scent of oak barrels and aged wine creates that distinctive winery atmosphere that makes you feel sophisticated and grounded all at once.

The soft sound of footsteps on hardwood makes you turn slightly, and there he is – the same vineyard worker from this morning, but now cleaned up, his shirt fresh and hair still damp from washing away the day’s work.

He approaches the window where you stand, close enough that you catch the faint scent of his soap mixed with that lingering hint of sun and earth that seems permanently part of him.

“The view’s better from up here,” he says quietly, but when you glance at him, he’s not looking out at the vineyard-covered hill – he’s looking at you. 

When he reaches past you to point out a particular section of vines climbing the slope, his arm brushes yours, and the simple contact sends warmth through you that has nothing to do with the wine.

“That’s where we met this morning,” he murmurs, his voice soft with something that sounds like wonder, as if he can’tquite believe the coincidence of finding you here again, glass in hand, perfectly framed by golden light and that breathtaking hillside beyond and valley below on the other side of the room.
