My wine of 2024 🤩 - Mas Des Restanques, Vacqueyras Blanc such a fantastic wine with honey and apricot notes, also a bit unusual as Vacqueyras is usually known for its reds.
I even took it to Spain with me 🤣. I will be having this on Christmas Day.

This week we have a French Alsace Pinot Noir by Bruno Sorg. With its ripe red fruits and cedar notes it is great if you prefer a red wine with Roast Turkey although I appear to have forgotten the word for Turkey at the end 🤣

Elderton, Barossa Shiraz is a full bodied rich red wine with dark fruits, chocolate and vanilla notes great for a cold winters evening. Drink on its own or with Venison and plums - one of my favourites.
