Christmas wines at HEMA

You’ve probably been preparing for Christmas dinner for weeks, but have you thought about the wine yet? If not, stop by HEMA, because they’ve highlighted their favorites especially for Christmas. All priced between €6 and €9.

Sparkling

The Cava Copa Sabia was already one of our favorite budget bubbles. Delicious as an aperitif, but also with salads and fish dishes. The rosé version also pairs well with cold cuts and Asian dishes. Both normally cost €7.50, but at Christmas you can get two for €12. If you don’t finish them, you can drink them on the 31st with your oliebollen.

White

Would you rather have white wine than sparkling with your starter? The Neleman viognier chardonnay (€6) was recently awarded an 8 by Harold Hamersma and also pairs very well with a fresh salad and shellfish. If you prefer a fresher wine: the Tourraine sauvignon blanc (€6.50) received the same score.

Red

Is there a meat-based main course on the table? Then, of course, you open a lovely bottle of red. The merlot from Niche Torre Oria Petit Verdor (€6.50) is lightly spicy with beautiful oak notes and goes wonderfully with pork or chicken, but also with pâté. Prefer something a little fuller-bodied? Then go for the Tesoruccio primitivo (€6.50), spicy with dark fruit and notes of rosemary. Perfect with red meat, game or during the cheese course.

All wines are available in stores as well as on the HEMA website.
