Celebrate the New Year with a range of delicious Champagne, Prosecco and Wines. A Champagne is a perfect gift for a friend or to bring to a party. For those who love a good Rose, try the Champagne Delacourt Rose Brut which pairs well with savoury dishes and medium dry for those who like a little sweetness matching fruity desserts.

The Conte Priuli Prosecco makes an ideal aperitif for its dry and refreshing finish which perfectly pairs with light canapes. Lively and crisp, this Italian sparkling wine has aromatic light fruit flavours from lemon to pear and apple, with a floral hint.

When it comes to Wine, pick up a classic bottle of red wine, from traditional Bordeaux grapes to a bold and velvety smooth Merlot for your table to celebrate in style. Try a Malbec for flavourful, weighty yet balanced flavours, a pleasing choice for New Year or a great gift too.

For white wine lovers, seek out impeccable quality from the finesse of a Chablis to a crisp Pinot, with lovely and refreshing ripe fruit flavours and a touch of zest for a standout taste experience. On the other hand, a Sauvignon Blanc is a versatile wine that offers an intense yet refreshing flavour.
