A few ideas
Here’s where we will be on Christmas Day (hopefully without the gentleman on the right).
Below are a few bottles which we will be taking with us into the tub.
There are plenty more on our website. So, explore the website for the full list of our wines, gins, beer and champagnes.
There is no minimum order. We simply charge shipping on all orders under £100. Over £100, deliveries are free. Orders are generally delivered overnight or as requested by you.
Have a wonderful Christmas from us all and a very Happy New Year.
Rupert, Simon, Mark, Guy, Claire, EJ and Deanie.

Macon Prisse Les Clochettes Cave de Prisse 2015 The first of our 3 White Burgundies for Christmas and the lightest. Grown on limestone soil, it is ultra-fresh, crisp and fruity. No oak, loads of flavour and drinkable all day. ABV 13% |
Saint Veran Les Pierres Cave de Prisse 2015 The Saint Veran is from the same Cave as the Macon Prissé. It is a bit richer, with slightly more minerality and a hint of lime. A bit more foody; perfect with the turkey. ABV 13% |

Vondeling Sweet Carolyn 2016 |
Le Tertre du Lys D’or, Sauternes 2009 |
||||
|
100% Muscat de Frontignan. An old favourite from South Africa and what a delight. Apricot, peach, orange zest and cinnamon, creamy honey flavours and fresh acidity. Fabulous. Brings a warming ray of African sunshine to a cold, dark Christmas Day. ABV 9.5% |
The latest little bit of Christmas magic from our “anonymous” Sauternes producer. All the usual delights, with a nice crispness at the end, plus the added benefit of a full size bottle. It really is spectacular. ABV 14%.75cl

| Chateau L’Arnaude Nuit Blanche 2016 MAGNUM | Vondeling Cabernet Sauvignon 2014 MAGNUM | ||||
| Rosé at Christmas. What an extraordinary idea and in a magnum as well! Freshen up that cold turkey or smoked salmon with a crisp, fresh taste of summer. Just as good with hot turkey, so why wait till Boxing Day? ABV 13% | So, the best Cabernet Sauvignon comes from Bordeaux? Think the same quality for half the price. Add a warming drop of African sun, lots of fruit and you have the perfect Christmas; all in one big bottle. ABV 14% | ||||

| Chateau du Grand Barrail Cuvée prestige Cotes du Blaye 2015 MAGNUM |
Vondeling Erica Shiraz 2010 MAGNUM |
||||
|
80% Merlot, 20% Cabernet sauvignon. The perfect wine for a big Boxing Day lunch – cold turkey, ham, salad and baked spuds. This one goes with all of them as well as the stilton afterwards. ABV 13%
|
Shiraz 85%, Grenache 5%, Carignan 5%, Mourvedre 4%, Viognier 1%, How about that for a proper collection of grapes? Combine that with wild yeast fermentation and a bit of oak and you have an epic wine. Red meat, stews - yum yum! ABV 14.1% Award: 4 Platter Stars |

| Chateau Thieuley Bordeaux 2012 MAGNUM | Chateau Larroque 2015 Bordeaux Superior MAGNUM | ||||
| 65% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Sauvignon & 10% Cabernet Franc. Here is a real old favourite. If you want the ideal, reliable Christmas red, Chateau Thieuley is the one. It never disappoints. ABV 13% | This delicious, easy drinking wine won “The Best value Bordeaux red” in the Decanter World Wine Awards 2017. That says it all. Goes with all things Christmassy. Soft, smooth and beautifully balanced. ABV 13.5% | ||||

| Vondeling Philosophie 2014 LIMITED EDITION MAGNUM | Mentzendorff Kummel MAGNUM |
||||
|
A tiny vineyard of ultra-low yielding Cabernet Sauvignon takes centre stage, supported by Bordeaux companions Merlot, Malbec, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Supplied in a presentation wooden box. A real gem. ABV 14.2% Award: 4.5 Platter stars |
A little indigestion after a touch too much festive fare? Kummel is the cure; a smooth Aniseed liqueur flavoured with caraway seed. Serve ice cold, relax and let it work its magic. ABV 38%
