Christmas Case 2022

We’ve got you sorted here at H2G Wines with our wonderful Christmas case for this year. We’ve covered the options for matching all of the seasonal foods with Cava, a great white all-rounder, 3 reds from light and lithe to smooth and rich plus a fabulous Tawny Port.

Cava Idilicum Brut Nature NV – €25.95 Cava DO, Spain

A creamy, well balanced Cava made by Dominio de la Vega from Macabeo grapes grown at altitude on cool limestone soils.Works wonderfully well with a whole host of foods – smoked fish, shellfish, white meats and more besides.

Chateau Reynier Bordeaux Blanc – €19.95 Bordeaux, France

Marc Lurton and daughter Pauline craft a wonderfully mineral Bordeaux Blanc made from Sauvignon, Semillon and Muscadelle. A great partner with seafood, white meats, game and a wide range of cheeses.

Domaine les Salices Pinot Noir – €17.95 Languedoc, France

Hailing from a Domaine north of Carcassonne this red fruited and savoury flavoured Pinot goes really well with gamey white meats, duck and goose and hard mature cheeses.

Pato Frio Red – €19.95 Alentejo, Portugal

This is a great all round red to savour with red meats or, is just as enjoyable all on its own. Mainly made with Aragonez and Alicante Bouschet the small proportion of Alfrocheiro gives the wine a lovely freshness that will have you going back for another glass.

Biurko Rioja Reserva – €28.50 Rioja, Spain

80% Tempranillo blended with 20% Graciano grown on the organic family vineyard in Rioja Alavesa. There’s a lovely bit of bottle age here (vintage 2014) so as well as the primary red and blue fruits there are notes of game and leather. Great with game, red meats and hard mature cheeses.

Conceito 10 year old Tawny Port – €37.00 Douro, Portugal

A must for the festive period – this Port has notes of caramel, figs, dates, plums and licorice. Great with a host of traditional dessert dishes and  blue cheese. Or if you prefer, it’s not half bad on it’s own by a roaring fire!
