Domaine Horgelus Sauvignon Blanc & Gros Manseng 2019
A wine that will go down in Swig legend as the ultimate ‘bargain white’; offers more bang for buck than a Boxing Day cracker sale. While others are wringing their hands trying to find a sensibly priced Sancerre for the festive feast, you could be chuckling with self-satisfaction at having purchased this. £10.95 a bottle.
St Romain La Perriere Domaine Buisson 2018
Wiston Estate Brut NV
English sparkling from the chalk slopes of the South Downs that’s every bit as noble as the land that bore it. Without wishing to sound all gammon-y, it’s about time Brits gave their own sparkling the credit it deserves. This one’s a serial winner in blind tastings against premium Champagnes. £26.50 a bottle.
Soli Merlot 2018
A cracking alternative to claret for your festive roast with all the trimmings – and a fraction of the price of most of them. There was a time not so long ago when Bulgarian reds were a hard sell but the quality-to-price ratio of Eduardo Miroglio’s wines is so irresistible that these wines fly off the shelf. Cheers to that! £12.95 a bottle.
Chateau Gelineau 2016
Christmas, bottled. Let the Queen’s speech commence. There are some crazy folk out there who will try to convince you that the festive seasons starts with Advent, but we wine bibbers know that it really begins with a good class of claret. This one from the Cotes de Bourg on Bordeaux’s right bank comes at an absolute bargain price. £14.95 a bottle.
Prosecco Brut La Jara
These sherbert-y bubbles are as pure the driven snow. A thigh-slappingly fine organic Prosecco that could fuel an entire festive season. If you’re within easy reach of some just-roasted chestnuts, snaffle a few and try them with a chilled glass of this and joy untold will be yours. Yours, I say! £15.95 a bottle.
