National Mulled Wine Day is a perfect occasion to gather with friends and family to enjoy a glass of this delicious and comforting drink.

Mulled wine has been enjoyed for centuries in different cultures around the world. The tradition of adding spices and heating wine dates back to ancient Rome, where it was used as a way to warm up during the cold winter months.

If you are looking to try a mulled wine recipe and not sure which wine to go for, keep this tip in mind ⬇️

When making a classic mulled wine, go for a wine that is relatively high in alcohol, has lots of fruit and relatively high tannins.

➡️ Best bets are a California Zinfandel, a Grenache or Merlot!

Two Hands Angels Share Shiraz: This Australian Shiraz has a deep dark red color with a purple core. It's aromas offer notes of red jellies, blueberry, lavender & gentle accents of pepper with an intriging overlay of Morrocan Spice Temple.

The palate is medium to full bodied in nature, gleaming with bright primary fruits of red berry & blueberry accents.

Acid is bright and frames the fruit nicely giving good share and vibrancy to the palate. Floral accents of lavender and freshly cut flowers gives good palate complexity. Tannis are chalky in nature and provide great texture to frame the wine. The palate is very boyant with great length and persistence in flavour.

Pairs perfectly with Grilled Tuna, Peking Duck, Lamb, Venison, Hamburgers, and Nachos!

Grab it now in-store!

🍷UNSORTED Pinot Noir: This California Pinot Noir has an intriguing incense of mint, eucalyptus, flint and alluring woodland aromatics that greet the senses.

A mid-palate acidity that yields spicy hints of coriander and white pepper, this expressive elixir remains vibrant, yet flawlessly integrated to the end.

This one pairs perfectly with your favourite beef and poultry dishes 🍽️

smooth tannins and a spicy finish.

Aged in French oak, this wine pairs nicely with aged cheese or a mouth-watering steak and will reward long cellaring.
