I was fortunate enough to receive three miniature bottles from i Heart Wines just in time for my holidays. Seeing a baby bottle of red, white and prosecco all ready to go definitely got me in the holiday mood.
I love to take miniature bottles away with me as my boyfriend Garrad is a cider drinker so opening up anything bigger is lost on me. Garrad calls me ‘2 sips’ because I usually take two sips of a drink, put it down then forget it… #fail.
On the first night I opened the bottle of Shiraz. I typically go for rose, but there was something about being snuggled up by the campfire that got me craving a red. I loved this Shiraz, it was smooth, yet rich and warming to drink. Holding it by the fire warmed it nicely and it went down all too quickly. I would definitely be purchasing more of these to cwtch up with on the sofa in the colder winter evenings.
On our third evening I opted for the Chardonnay. We got back to our camp early afternoon and I just fancied a nice cold, crisp glass of white wine. As usual Garrad opened a bottle of cider and we just chilled out with Oscar enjoying the spectacular views. It was heavenly!
(There will be a blog post coming soon on our fantastic stay at Wind in the Willows)
I had been chilling the Chardonnay in the fridge all day and it was deliciously cold by the time I got it out. It was fresh and fruity with a hint of citrus. It sits comfortably in the medium to dry category if that’s your preference. I can imagine reaching for these by the pool next summer quite happily.
On our last night I cracked open the miniature bottle of Prosecco. This was the one I had been waiting for. I love champagne and Prosecco and I couldn’t wait to try this. The prosecco had the most perfect creamy, golden hue and the smoothest little bubbles. Like the Chardonnay I had chilled it all day in the fridge as I like my Prosecco really cold. This had medium, fruity flavour that had a hint of delicate sweetness that I loved. This would be a perfect Prosecco for any celebratory occasion.
