English Wine Christmas Day Selection

Celebrate Christmas Day entirely in English style with this beautifully curated selection of six outstanding wines from some of the country’s most respected producers. From the first festive glass to the final pour of the evening, each wine has been chosen to pair perfectly with the rhythm of Christmas Day and the richness of the meal.

Start the day in style with Huxbear Classic Sparkling – bright, elegant and refreshing, it’s ideal for morning canapés, smoked salmon blinis or as you welcome guests through the door. Its fine mousse and crisp acidity set a celebratory tone from the very first sip.

With festive starters, serve the beautifully expressive Henners Gardner Street – a refined still English white wine with layered orchard fruit, gentle texture and fresh acidity. It’s an excellent match for scallops, cured fish, terrines, pâté and lighter seafood dishes.

For the main event, two styles of English Pinot Noir give you delicious versatility at the table. Sharpham Pinot Noir is bright, supple and fruit-led, making it a natural partner for roast turkey, cranberry sauce and all the trimmings. For those opting for richer meats, Hattingley Valley Pinot Noir brings deeper structure, savoury notes and added complexity – superb with beef, venison or a hearty nut roast.

As the afternoon drifts into evening, Lyme Bay Pinot Noir Rosé is perfect with cold cuts, leftover turkey, smoked salmon and festive grazing boards. Dry, delicate and refreshing, it bridges lunch and supper effortlessly.

For a fresh, aromatic lift alongside vegetables, lighter dishes and spiced leftovers, Lyme Bay Bacchus delivers vibrant flavours of citrus, elderflower and fresh herbs. A brilliant match for sprouts, parsnips, stuffing, and even Boxing Day curries.

This is a complete Christmas Day journey in English wine – celebratory, food-friendly and perfectly paced from morning festivities to evening relaxation. It also showcases the breadth and quality of modern English winemaking, from world-class sparkling to expressive still wines.

Ideal as a thoughtful gift or the centrepiece of your own Christmas table.
