Overall, and covering just something better than four hours, I tasted 50 wines. Wines were divided into groups of nine per flight (except the final flight which was one wine only) meaning a total of 6 flights.
As always a stellar line-up of wine suggestions from our intrepid wine reviewer Sam.
There are many versions of the Coquille St Jacques and I took inspiration from several with a mix and match list of ingredients. I was pleased with the result and was surprised at how easy it was to make. It is sure to impress.
This year we may not be as together as previous years but by being careful and kind and staying in our bubble we can #PartyLikeIts2020 with these fine wines.
Perfect for after dinner, with dessert, or for a nightcap it compliments your dining experience. Wines to enjoy throughout the holidays!

Always a popular choice during the holidays our #FavouriteThings Holiday Gift Suggestion is a Prosecco.
