Wines For Christmas

Grape – Gamay

Here you'll find a vinous grotto full of wines that we've chosen to highlight for the the festive season. Everything you'll need to get through December. Various styles of celebratory bubbles, for Christmas morning through to late night parties; robust red wines that one turns to when a chill is in the air and the fire is lit; textured, complex whites that will sit on the dinner table and more than do justice to the roasted bird; pocket-friendly options for larger gatherings or those looking to fill the racks; wines by the litre or magnum, because 'tis the time of year for big bottles; youthful wines bursting with vim or those with a few years under their belts awaiting that special occasion to pop the cork. Our seasonal edit is sure to bring you some Christmas cheer.

Either shop the whole collection, or use the filter to the left to narrow things down and get to exactly what you're looking for. Order for yourself or we can deliver directly to a lucky loved one as a gift.

Mikaël Bouges
La Bulle 2023

A bit like biting into a crunchy red apple right out of the fridge, the wine is whistle-clean, zippy and fresh. Gentle notes of underripe strawberry, tart bramble berries and a twang of rhubarb lead into savoury bitters in the finish. Find out more.

Elisa Guerin
Chiroubles 2022

An impressive example of this elevated cru. The texture of the wine is beautifully soft and silky, with integrated, lightly gripping tannic structure. An elegant Beaujolais that bears the complexity of its old-vine origin. Find out more.

Elisa Guerin
'Les Thorins' Moulin-à-Vent 2022

The darker, more brooding and structured side of Elisa's two Moulin-à-Vent cuvées; this is the only of her wines that sees any time in barrel. Robust and ageworthy, with an iron-rich mineral streak imparted by the gorrha soils that define this single 1.5-hectare plot. Find out more.

Patricia & Rémi Bonneton
La Tangente 'Expérience' 2021

With time to age, the dusty perfume of the wine has developed into something akin to a savoury Jura Pinot, intense with liquorice, allspice and earthy tones. Find out more.

Noëlla Morantin
Marie Rose 2023

Delicate aromas that meld forest berries with stony minerals lead into a fine rush of elegant, needlepoint bubbles. The lean fruits sit in harmony with a gentle creaminess and saline influence from the lees contact and long, coiling acidity. Find out more.

  • Region Touraine, Loire, France
  • Grapes Gamay
  • Vineyard Organic
  • Cellar Fermented with native yeasts, unfiltered & unfined, minimal additional sulphites

Noëlla Morantin
Mon Cher 2022

A crush of dark fruit, bright acidity and iron-like streak, softened with some creamy, lactic notes then deliciously smooth on the way down. Savoury charcoal bitters tail in the finish - a great vintage that sheds the carbo style of last year. Find out more.
