Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay are the wines most ordered during a romantic night out stateside, according to Provi Market Research. When choosing wine for a date night, consider it a great opportunity. The conversation around which bottle to pick is a great ice breaker and slowly will get you both into the mood. Also, you could learn a thing or two about your mate’s taste.
What kind of wine should I drink on a date?
Although there is nothing terrible about common grapes, a romantic date night out is an excellent opportunity to order something new. On Valentine’s Day, or any special night, selecting a bottle of wine for a date can make a big difference. Not sure where to start? I have a couple of recommendations that feature wine ideal for a date night.
Wine for a date night: From the City of Romeo and Juliet
Valpolicella Classico DOC

The Tedeschi Valpolicella DOC Classico Superiore La Fabriseria is a robust, distinct, and elegant wine. Its character makes it the ideal accompaniment to a dinner for two during a date night.
While its unique symbolic meaning conveys the virtues of ardor, diligence, and perseverance—all of which were required to develop this wine and endure through time. The same drive, determination, and passion keep every great love tale alive, much like choosing the right wine for such a magical evening.
The wine is aged for 24 months in Slavonian oak barrels and then 6 months in the bottle. The clay-limestone of morainic origin that makes up the vineyard’s soil, the vinification techniques, and the special care in the cellar, together with aging times, give rise to a significant wine with a remarkable structure that is both complex and elegant. This wine has been highly recognized across different vintages and reflects the Tedeschi family production philosophy.
Wine for a date night: Rosé from Spain
Not your typical Summer Rosé
Rosé is an excellent wine for Valentine’s night out. Bodegas Borsao Rosado Selección 2021 is widely available. This Rosé has a flavor profile that makes it delicious to pair with different plates. Which has rich aromas of cherries, candies, and floral notes on the palate. Its balanced acidity ensures that everyone you serve it to will appreciate it. Salmon for dinner, strawberries covered in chocolate, and a charcuterie dish of soft cheese all pair well with this pink wine, making it a top choice for a date night.
