Domaine Bérénas, Insolite blanc 2015, IGP Pays D’oc tasted fresh, fruity and worked well in my homemade white wine sauce blended with fusilli pasta, asparagus, carrots and a sprinkling of pomegranate seeds to give the dish a burst of flavour and a crafty Christmas colouring.

Mas du Soleilla, Bringaïret 2012, AOP Languedoc La Clape, witgh a ready rich, spicy and fruity flavour made a marvellous mulled wine ready for those winter evenings ahead.

Serve your specialist sommelier chosen wines in style with this terrific tasting kit which includes a corkscrew and two tasting glasses.  Give the gift of Wine this season.

Merry Christmas and Thank you for reading 😊
