Here are our top three red wine recommendations for a truly memorable Christmas:

1. The Bold & Budget-Friendly Star: Finca Flichman 2018 Roble Cabernet Sauvignon

For those seeking a robust, characterful red that delivers exceptional flavour without breaking the bank, this Argentine gem is a must-have.

  • Region: Mendoza, Argentina

  • Profile: A bold, approachable New World Cabernet Sauvignon with impressive depth and maturity, aged gently in oak (“Roble”).

  • Tasting Notes: Inviting aromas of rich blackcurrant, ripe plum, and subtle cherry, lifted by hints of cedar and warm spice. The palate is smooth and rounded, offering layers of dark fruit, soft tannins, and a pleasing freshness.

  • Pairing Perfection: This is a fantastically versatile wine that stands up beautifully to intense flavours. Serve it alongside your roast lamb, grilled steaks, or a rich, tomato-based dish on Christmas Eve.

  • Special Festive Price: £20.00 (inc. VAT) – Save £12.50

2. The Elegant & Age-Worthy Claret: Le Comte de Malartic Rouge 2019

A classic choice for the main Christmas Day roast, the Le Comte de Malartic Rouge is a refined, expressive Bordeaux that showcases true elegance and structure.

  • Region: Bordeaux, France (from the esteemed Malartic-Lagravière estate)

  • Profile: A refined and structured Bordeaux crafted from a classic blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, offering depth and beautifully polished fruit. The 2019 vintage is notable for its purity and potential for cellaring.

If you need a reliable, inviting red that everyone will love, whether over dinner or simply sharing stories by the fire, the Haut-Brisson is the perfect pour.
