Pure Self-indulgence

First up on the list is the ultimate “treat yo’self” dessert wine: Trentadue’s Chocolate Amore is an opulent port-style wine made from Merlot grapes just begging to be paired with a decadent dessert. Aged for 12 months in neutral European oak when aging is complete a small amount of natural chocolate extract is infused making a rich yet perfectly balanced wine that neither overwhelms nor underperforms. A perfectly delicious dessert in its own right, Chocolate Amore also pairs well chilled and draped over vanilla ice cream. Go ahead and indulge yourself, there's no such thing as loving yourself too much when it comes to dessert.

Next up is the ultimate sipper to share, Weszeli’s We Love Pet Nat Rosé. A natural Rosé pet nat from Austria like no other this biodynamic sparkler is brimming with personality. Unfiltered, full of red fruity goodness complemented by stunning minerality, with a lasting and powerful finish. We like to think this wine reflects everything a good friendship should be, dynamic, a little bit sweet, a little bit funky and 100% authentic. Perfect to share with friends over light apps and sparkling conversation.

While our Pet Nat might be the queen of casual if you’re looking for an elegant evening out on the town Nebbiolo is your girl.
