Christmas Gift Guide 2021

Give the gift of great wine this Christmas!

 

For the fizz fanatic: Kabola Re Brut Sparkling Wine

It wouldn’t be a party without a festive fizz and this one is a superb alternative to the typical champagne supply. This is a lively yet refined sparkling wine, with hints of lemon and strawberry that make it the ultimate celebratory drink.

For the seafood lover: Merga Victa Pošip

Pošip is the true Dalmatian white grape variety, originally discovered by a farmer 150 years ago in the village of Smokvica. The fruity palate dominated by lemon and lime perfectly complements fish and seafood dishes. A great one to pair with your bakalar on Christmas Eve!

For the newlyweds: Badel Kruškovac

Kruškovac is a traditional liqueur served at weddings and it is also perfect in combination with Badel Stara Šljivovica – a cocktail especially popular in Germany and Austria.

For the rosé fan: Testament Opolo Rose

Be transported to a sun-drenched afternoon on the coast of the Adriatic Sea. The peach and wild flower notes are truly delightful.

For the one who prefers beer: San Servolo Beer

Our first venture into bringing Croatian beer to the UK and certainly not the last, this beer is perfect for those wanting to try something a little different to the usual offerings. Reminiscent of a summer’s day and a great match for pizza, pasta and other party food, it will be a hit on Boxing Day!

For the Christmas dinner: Ilocki Podrumi Graševina Premium and Kabola Merlot

The wines of choice for our own festive table – of course we need a white and a red option! The Graševina is known to locals in Eastern Croatia as the “wine of grace”  and has won several awards. It is perfectly balanced with a crisp, dry taste that complements turkey with all the trimmings! The Merlot is the perfect choice for the red wine drinkers among us; it is elegant and full-bodied without being overpowering. This wine is like drinking liquid velvet and we can’t wait to share a bottle or two with our family this Christmas!
