Christmas Wine

Christmas is usually my favourite family time. My family are unashamedly 'foodie' and Christmas Day often gets a theme for the menu and special wine from the cellar.

Actually nothing is different this year apart from one small matter, in that I'm pregnant and can't swing into the selecting of wine with quite as much enthusiasm as usual.

I'm still a Sommelier though and a proper, geeky wine enthusiast so my tasting (smelling and spitting) will continue.

I'm looking forward to dinner tomorrow despite the lack of that frisson of excitement emanating from those special bottles.

Merry Christmas
