More about the wines you’ll enjoy at this dinner:

Ever since it was first produced, and down through the various vintages, Château Beychevelle has reflected the elegance and finesse of Saint Julien's finest terroirs.Graceful and complex, with a tremendous aromatic richness, Château Beychevelle is made from the best plots in the vineyard and undergoes a rigorous selection process. It reveals its character after about ten years, and can be kept for several decades, depending on the vintage.

The rigorous selection process undergone by the grand vin results in the creation of its younger brother, Amiral de Beychevelle. Despite being made from young vines, Amiral de Beychevelle benefits from the same growing techniques, meticulous sorting, and traditional barrel ageing.It has the same elegance and finesse as its older brother, but reveals its character more quickly, offering wine-enthusiasts the full vivacity of its youth. It can be kept for up to fifteen years, depending on the vintage.

Valentine’s Day Wine Gifts

Not a big fan of lovey-dovey flowers as Valentine’s Day gift? So am I!

wine gifts for valentines day

Rather than getting a bouquet of flowers, I’d be more excited receiving a bouquet of fried chicken nuggets, a box of Classified Chicken or Prawn Sensation pizza and maybe, like what my good friend, Rowena, was thinking of…a bouquet of beers and ciders! Yummmm! 

For those of you who are looking for unconventional ideas to give your loved ones this coming V Day, try sending them wine or beer! Wine is classy, creative, perfect for spending more quality time and has wide choices to pick from. Beer is fun, cool and perfect for an evening filled with laughter and cheers!


Whether you're dining out, snuggling up at home or giving V-day a miss, a bottle of wine is necessary but as with all occasions, which wine? Here’s an easy guide to help you pick the right wine:


The Love Flirts 
First date? Just getting to know him or her? Set the mood with a good Italian Cabernet Sauvignon. It's a general crowd pleaser and great with a lot of dinner dishes.
Pick up line pairing: This wine tastes like I'll be texting you later. 


The Romantic Couple 
Cozy up with a seductive bottle of Bordeaux, a classic favorite. It pairs well with most food dishes and has stellar character to carry on for after dinner drinks. Netflix and chill, perhaps?
Pick up line pairing: Wow, and I thought my wine had good legs!


The Adventurous Couple
The ones who couldn't be bothered for a bottle of white or red but prefer beer instead. With the thrill for stepping out of comfort zones, forget the classics and try a few craft beers instead. 
Pick up line pairing: Do you do tequila? How about giving me a shot. 

The Single Ladies 
A day to celebrate your love for your girlfriends, GALentine's Day! Enjoy the sweeter things in life with a bottle of Moscato, keep it peachy with some rosé wine or pop the night with a bottle of Champagne! You can never go wrong with a bottle of bubbly.
