🍷 Christmas Festivity Wines 🍷

in wine •  6 years ago 

Christmas festivities provide a great opportunity to roll out some decent vino - here are two highlights so far:

The Wine Society's Hermitage 2014

We were looking for a decent white wine to wash down with some pate as a starter....

Introducing The Wine Society's Hermitage Exhibition 2014 white wine and what a stonker!

Plenty of honey, peach and rich luscious fruits. Absolutely beautiful!

Chateau Coutet St Emilion Grand Cru 2014

Now what can compete with the richness of a roasted goose with all the trimmings?

We needed a red that could pack a punch and this Chateau Coutet stepped up to the mark. It needed decanting to properly release the flavours but this was silky smooth with vanilla tones. A stunner of a red.

Definitely not "everyday" wines, but it's good to find a special occasion to crack open these decadent treats!
