Ready for camping
In order to create a perfect picnic experience, of course, it is necessary to make preparations in all aspects:
Location
First of all, you must find the right picnic spot. If you find it well, you are halfway to success. Would you rather sit on the green belt beside the road and absorb exhaust gas while receiving attention while having a picnic, or would you rather lie on the grass in the mountains and listen to the sound of the stream? I imagined the scene of the former, and I was scared. Forests, grasslands, and seaside are all good places. Find a place with sunshine, grass, trees, water, and few people and take a place immediately. Even if you don’t want to move because it’s too far, lower your requirements, and the surrounding parks are also good choices. In addition, if people allow it, campuses with large lawns are also good places. It is the most pleasant and rare to have a picnic in the beautiful mountains and rivers without being disturbed.
Equipment
Okay, let’s get to the point. You must bring all the equipment. I wrote down a list:
Picnic baskets, picnic mats, tableware and other things that can be played with can be selected as exquisite and beautiful as possible. Whether it is pastoral style or simple style, it is reflected through these small details.
Picnic baskets are a great tool for creating a perfect retro picnic atmosphere, and they are also convenient and practical. Retro bicycles are also available. Picnic mats are best waterproof, but in order to have a natural and relaxing feeling, you can choose a cotton picnic mat and then add a waterproof disposable plastic tablecloth underneath:
Food and Drinks
Picnics are different from barbecues. People like to bring a wider range of food, but they are relatively light, mostly cold food, such as salads, sandwiches, sushi, cheese, fruits, etc. If you are a meat lover, bringing some sliced Spanish ham or dried sausages is enough to satisfy you. When the clouds are light and the wind is light, the more natural the food is, the more relaxing it is.
Making an egg and cheese salad is a good idea, delicious and pleasing to the eye. Friends who love Western food can choose baguettes, cheese and dried sausages:
Fruits and pre-prepared biscuits and sandwiches are simple choices. At this time, if you want to drink hot drinks, you may only rely on thermos cups or thermos bottles. Take out a cup of hot tea at a critical moment, and your companions will definitely be impressed by your attentiveness:
As a wine professional, how can I not recommend a few wines suitable for picnics? The most tasteful picnic participants will bring wine glasses. It should be noted that some wines are not particularly suitable for picnic food and atmosphere. For example, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah, which are heavier and richer wines, will suppress the flavor of the food. They are also too solemn and serious, and it is not easy for people to be happy and relaxed. In fact, the most suitable wine for picnics is light-bodied wine, or slightly sweet. Sparkling wine is of course also a good choice. Here are a few specific chestnuts:
Riesling: It may be the easiest white wine to pair with food. Its high acidity can whet the appetite. It is good to choose a dry or semi-dry wine.
Sauvignon Blanc: This is a classic picnic wine, refreshing and fresh, and goat cheese fits it very well.
Pinot Noir: Pinot Noir is really a great match for food. As light as Pinot Noir is, it will definitely go well with the food you bring.
Gamay: This is a wine that is naturally suitable for picnics. It needs to be highly recommended. The Gamay variety is currently mainly produced in the Loire Valley and Beaujolais (Beaujolais) in France. In addition to being used to make the well-known Beaujolais Nouveau, it is also often favored by believers of natural wine. Choose a Beaujolais village-level wine such as Morgon Village, or a Loire Valley Gamay blend. The delicate and elegant tannins and active red fruit acidity will definitely surprise you and refresh your spirits. As a red wine, Gamay is also completely stress-free to pair with fish sushi and sashimi.
Rosé: It is the first choice for many people for picnics. It combines the characteristics of white wine and red wine, with high acidity, cherry and strawberry aromas. It also needs to be chilled before drinking, and can be paired with many foods. What's more, rosé is cheap and beautiful. Rosé from Provence should be the most easily chosen by picnic lovers.
Moscato: If you prefer sweet taste, I say, don't hesitate, just take a Moscato d'Asti. It has the aroma of various tropical fruits, citrus, and flowers, and lovely bubbles. It's like putting summer in a glass. How can you bear to refuse it?
Sparkling: Sparkling wine has always had an advantage: it adds to the festive atmosphere, but here it obviously has another advantage: you don't need to bring a bottle opener! But remember to chill it in advance, or put it in an insulated ice bag. You can choose Cava or Prosecco, which are usually cheaper, and champagne is of course no problem.
Of course, there are some wines that are also suitable, such as Pinot Gris, but barreled Chardonnay, etc., which can be used as picnic wines. I won’t list them one by one here. If you bring white wine or rosé wine, ice bags are essential. Moreover, food also needs to be kept in a low temperature environment. Special reminder, don’t forget to bring a bottle opener. Believe me, if you bring wine but forget to bring a bottle opener, you will definitely want to kill yourself…..
Ah, if you like desserts, don’t forget to go to a familiar store to pack a portion, and you can also use some drinks as outdoor afternoon tea.
In fact, a perfect picnic is nothing more than a perfect location, a group of lovely people, a comfortable picnic mat, delicious food and drinks, and it would be even better if there is a cute puppy. The Queen of England has dogs with her wherever she goes on her picnic. Such picnics are really addictive.
Spring and autumn are squeezed shorter and shorter by summer and winter. It will be midsummer soon. Recently, the spring breeze is gentle and the temperature is just right. Hurry up and call your friends to go out for a picnic like the Queen’s family.
