Anna Caidan has selected some fantastic wines to enhance your festive meals
DOMAINE ETIENNE SAUZET
Bourgogne Blanc La Tufera 2018
A finely subtle nose that smells of firestone. The mouth is lively and powerful, more saline than fruity.
AGOSTINA PIERI
Brunello di Montalcino 2015
Brunello di Montalcino Agostina Pieri 2015 has an intense ruby red colour. The bouquet reveals aromas of ripe forest fruits evolving on empyreumatic notes of tobacco and leather. Ample on the palate, silky and persistent revealing fruity notes on the finish.
KOPKE
Colheita 1999
Ripe fruit giving way to woody vanilla notes. The palate reveals a beautiful texture, silky tannins, a roundness supported by notes of spicy black fruit. This Port wine deserves to be decanted for a few hours in order to express itself fully.
