The Festive Mixed Case

All your Christmas wines,  beautifully gathered, thoughtfully chosen, and ready for the season.

Our Festive Case is a celebration in twelve chapters: a curated collection designed to glide with you from twinkling December evenings to the mellow glow of Boxing Day. These are the bottles we reach for when the house is full, the table is set, and the moments deserve something a little special, wines with generosity, charm, and that little spark of magic that only Christmas brings.

Inside, you’ll find five expressive whites that cover every festive mood: a crisp single-vineyard Marlborough Sauvignon, a sun-kissed Sardinian Vermentino, the pristine elegance of Kumeu River Chardonnay, a textured, quietly luxurious South African Chenin, and a Rhône white that brings warmth, stone fruit and winter-herb perfume.

Then come five reds chosen for sheer versatility and pleasure, from cool-climate Syrah with its peppery lift, to plush Mendoza Malbec, a beautifully mature Gran Reserva Rioja, classic Right Bank Bordeaux, and the cult icon The Chocolate Block, a wine that practically wraps itself around you on a December night.

To finish, a bottle of English sparkling from Kent’s Simpsons Estate, bright, refined, and perfect for toasts and a luscious half bottle of botrytised Semillon, the kind of golden sweetness that turns dessert, cheese boards, or simply a quiet moment into something memorable.

It’s everything your Christmas should taste like: thoughtful, delicious, and curated the Wine Republic way.
Perfect for gifting, perfect for hosting, and more than worthy of your own table.
