Signature Wines for Christmas
Posted on Mon 13th Jul 2015 at 09:17
Choosing wine is a tricky business, and with so many grapes, styles and regions to choose from it's no wonder that there's a strong temptation to pick something familiar rather than trying anything new.
Yet with a huge range of exciting wines from Macedonia, Croatia, Slovenia and Bulgaria beginning to reach the UK, there has never been a better time to broaden your wine horizons. As importers and distributors of Stobi Wines in the UK, produced on the most famous archaeological site in the Republic of Macedonia, we know that there are some truly delicious wines being produced in Eastern Europe, and we're not alone in this opinion. According to Master of Wine Caroline Gilby, "big-name writers such as Jancis Robinson MW, Steven Spurrier and even Robert Parker are starting to write about eastern European wines — clear acceptance that the best wines are genuinely holding their own in global terms." Gilby tasted the Stobi range at our HQ earlier this year and praised both their excellent construction and flavour. She agrees with us that the time for Eastern European wines has finally come - why not try some Stobi wines and see for yourself? We stock white wines, red wines and a Pinot Noir Rosé wine, many made with wonderful grapes that are unique to the area, and would urge you not to miss out on these memorable, flavourful wines. They’re the perfect choice if you want to select something different for your customers this Christmas.
