Don’t know which wine to buy for Christmas? Want to impress your guests but aren’t sure what to consider when choosing a bottle? Don’t worry, you’ve come to the right place. At WINERYON, not only do we offer the finest range of wines on the market, but we also help you select the variety that pairs best with each of the dishes you prepare during the festive season.
Which Wine to Buy for Christmas
When selecting wines to accompany our Christmas menus, the usual advice is to opt for a red wine. This recommendation is based on the fact that most Christmas tables feature roasted pork or beef. However, as this is not always the case, at WINERYON we believe it’s best to evaluate each option individually and, based on their main ingredients, suggest a series of pairings. That’s why we offer the following list:
Christmas Wine 1: Strong-flavoured Meats with Roasted Vegetables or Nuts
For these dishes, our DEMUERTE DELUXE wine is ideal. It is an elegant, mature red from the Yecla Designation of Origin, made from Monastrell, Petit Verdot, and Syrah grapes. Its deep cherry-red colour is visually striking, and it perfectly complements red meat dishes, helping to cleanse the palate of fat and the lingering intense flavours typical of these dishes.
Christmas Wine 2: White Meat Dishes
Chicken or turkey pairs best with lighter wines, so it’s advisable to choose a red with personality but a soft touch. Our DEMUERTE ONE is perfect for this: a wine reminiscent of ripe red fruit, with subtle spicy and toasted notes, enhancing the flavour of these meats and making each bite more enjoyable.
Christmas Wine 3: Fish Menus
For those who prefer white wine, options are recommended for fish and seafood, or slightly sweet whites for starters. At WINERYON, we suggest our DEMUERTE WHITE. This is a light yet creamy wine, full-bodied, with excellent acidity and a long finish featuring notes of white fruit and herbs—flavours that perfectly complement fish dishes.
Christmas Wine 4: Rice Dishes and Salads
Rosé wines are ideal for toasts and for accompanying rice dishes or salads. We recommend our DEMUERTE ROSÉ: a light, fresh, and delicate rosé with soft aromas of strawberries and cherries. It is a fresh, easy-to-drink wine with good acidity.
Christmas Wine 5: Starters
Although mentioned last, starters are by no means less important. Whether for lunch or dinner, wines are perfect for accompanying charcuterie and canapés, which often contain rich ingredients. For this moment, we recommend our DEMUERTE CLASSIC, a red wine with a balanced aroma that moves between fruit and wood. Its smooth, indulgent taste appeals to a wide range of palates. Another excellent choice for starters is DEMUERTE ONE, a young, fruity red wine with a fresh, dry flavour.
Looking for a Wine to Gift?
No problem—any of our DEMUERTE wines make a perfect gift. If you want to make an impression, we recommend DEMUERTE BLACK. Presented in a black case, this wine is both elegant and understated. Its label even features two 6.40 mm, 1-carat SWAROVSKI crystals, making it not only a unique wine worldwide but also an ideal gift for any occasion, especially Christmas.
