Impress family and friends

With a few clever choices you make an impression at the table without being pretentious.

Start with bubbles

A glass of champagne or crémant on arrival sets the tone straight away. Try a Brut Nature: pure, dry and surprising with oysters or nibbles.

Tell the story

People remember stories. An Albarone from an almost forgotten grape, a Barolo from a single cru or a Priorat from century-old vines: tell where the wine comes from and who makes it.

Dare a large format

A magnum on the table always impresses, and the wine often tastes even better from it.

Taste blind

Hide the bottles in a bag or a sock and let everyone guess: grape, country or price. A game even experts learn from.

End sweet

Vendanges Tardives with foie gras or blue cheese, or a Moscato d'Asti with dessert: a sweet finish lingers longest.
