I get asked a fair bit what I am drinking at Christmas with the family. To be honest I STILL have not decided 100% but in case it inspires you … here’s some thoughts – this is the first pass/shortlist

So far the list includes:

Sherry:

• Fino Perdido, Sanchez Romate (Spain)

White:

• Soalheiro, Alvarinho 2012 (Portugal)
• Balavaud Amigne Grand Cru 2011 (Switzerland)

Red:

• Viña Ardanza Rioja 1981 (Spain)
• Castello di Verrazzano, Chianti Classico 2006

Dessert:

• Graham’s 20 year old Tawny Port (Portugal)
