Tried, tested and delicious wines for the most important meal of the year
A six bottle mixed case of high quality wines from prestigious estates account the world that will be ideal to enjoy on or around Christmas day
"A full bodied, well rounded wine, that is a great example of the harmonious balance which can be achieved between fruit and delicate oak flavours, as they combine to produce gentle complexity. Bursting with dried apricot and pineapple, a hint of vanilla and some typical Chenin honey notes on the long-lasting finish."
"Arguably the standard by which all dry Riesling should be measured, and required reading for any serious student of wine, this is absolutely classic, with tangy lime pith and aromatic beeswax character. Fine balance and texture on the palate, with typical Trimbach understated elegance. Still youthful and fresh, it is just starting to show hints of matured complexity. Delicious now, it will continue to evolve beautifully for at least another 4-5 years."
"Starting with an aromatic flowery/fruity bouquet and finishing with clean, crisp citrus style fruit, great length and limestone/minerally tones. A round, lush wine - elegantly classic."
"Earthy, spicy Shiraz from McLaren Vale in South Australia, full of black plums, liquorice and black pepper, with a peaty underlayer of mushroom, pipe tobacco and charcuterie."
"With a vibrant purple colour, Moulin d'Issan has ripe, expressive mulberry and pomegranate aromas, as well as suggestions of oyster shell, seared steak and toasted oak. In the mouth, it is soft, silky and succulent yet dry, savoury and refreshing. An absolutely delicious, classic Bordeaux that is ready to drink now and over the next 1-2 years, this is a genuine bargain from the excellent Margaux Grand Cru Classé, Château d'Issan. It comes from part of d'Issan's land which is contiguous with the Margaux vineyards, but situated closer to the Gironde estuary, which is why (1) it is a Bordeaux Supérieur not Margaux and (2) it is such great value. It is named for the estate's 17th Century windmill, the ruins of which are still in the middle of the vineyard."
"Another great wine from Planeta, one of the top producers from Sicily. A generous, fruity style of Nero d'Avola, a grape particular to this region. Classic plum and blackberry notes, with just a suggestion of chocolate on the finish. Direct and charming, enjoy this with anything from a meaty pasta dish to herby roast beef. Soft tannins and roundness characterise the wine."
