Three very-top-shelf bottles to enjoy over Christmas
Saint Joseph 'Preface', Pierre Jean Villa, Northern Rhone, France
£36.00 > £32.40
A masterclass in Syrah, this is rich and complex as good Syrah should always be, yet with a touch of elegance and wonderful perfume. A luxurious choice to match with the main event on Christmas day or enjoy with red meat.

'Up the Hill' Pinot Noir, Ten Minutes by Tractor 
£38.00 > £34.20
Outrageously good Pinot Noir Noir from cult-winery Ten Minutes by Tractor. We've had this in storage for a while and we've brought it out just in time for Christmas. It's a perfect choice for Turkey. There's sumptuous red fruit on the nose, a savoury note, and lots of complexity developing from time in bottle.

Ribera del Duero Finca Los Quemados, Goya Garcia Viadero
£32.00 > £28.80
Finca Los Quemados comes from 100 year-old vines just under 900m altitude on a deep and light soil of ferrous sand and pebbles; it spent one year in barriques before six months bottle ageing. High pitched with an incredible freshness thanks to the high altitude vines this wine has attractive aromas of viola and graphite with a juicy and meaty texture.
