‘Eat, DRINK and Be Merry!
Make your Christmas stay as relaxed as possible by selecting your wine in advance. Our wine list is overflowing with delicious choices to suit all palates. From Bordeaux to Burgundy, and Santorini to Napa Valley, we have wines for every occasion. But as Christmas is the occasion, it feels only right to indulge a little...
And a bottle of Bollinger on ice is the essential way to start off! Chilled to perfection, exactly as Christmas should be.
Our Head of Wine, Polly Gibson, recommends the Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons 2019 from Jean Dauvissat as a ‘top choice’ white for the main event; a generous, joyous wine, that will beautifully complement the delicious roasted flavours of Christmas Day lunch. Chablis still offers some of the best value for top white Burgundy, and this 1er Cru oozes sophistication. Outstanding quality. £99.
If red wine is where your heart lies, a new addition to our list this autumn has been the Mercurey Vieilles Vignes 2018 from Domaine Albert Sounit. A Pinot noir of outstanding quality, silken and sublime, with a little more body and ripeness than typical Burgundy. The perfect foil for bold Christmassy flavours, whilst still having that remarkable Pinot noir quality of being utterly refreshing – just what the palate calls for after all the feasting! A sensational wine, one to savour with loved ones. £78
And not forgetting pudding, how about the legendary Royal Tokay - equally delicious with both sweet desserts and cheese, this Sauternes-style dessert wine will make the finishing touch. £90/bottle. Also available by the glass.
