Festive Staff picks
Steve
“It’s got a turkey on it! What’s more Christmas-sy than that?”
RAEF
“A wonderful and versatile wine from the Massini brothers. Delicate aromatics and pithy tannins make this very drinkable.”
Kit
“The perfect bubbles for Christmas Day? I'd say so! This is full of warm, toasty, nutty depth and feels wonderfully decadent. Fröhliche Weihnachten!”
Ellen
“Appropriately named and perfect for a party!” 🎉
Dovid
“A well-timed reminder of summer; full of freshness but also warming spiced fruit.”
J.P.
“A wonderful tonic for hangovers the day after… or a brilliant breakfast wine on the big day itself!
Anna
“A lovely party wine – crowd-pleasing but not boring! Plush fruit and moreish minerality. Even better in large format!”
Carmen
“A wine that is good fun for all the family – deep, dense fruit, beautiful earthy minerality, and a gust of salty sea air.”
ROSIE
“A lively and nuanced side-step from the heavier winter reds: spice, tomato, a little sugar, with an almost celestial acidity!”
AARON
“Aromatic, spicy, floral – and so well balanced. I’m going to sit with this and all the leftover Christmas ham on Boxing Day!”
Darryl
“Grip, salt, spice, with gentle waves of citrus and anise on the finish. This is THE bottle that I will have with roast duck on Christmas day itself.”
Emilio
“A lovely transition wine as you move from cheese on to puddings – gently off-dry, lick of acidity, and so drinkable.”
