Kate Says

"I always think this is such an easy gift to get right. I love the freshness and zing of the Sauvignon Blanc alongside the richness and comforting depth of the Rioja Reserva. If I wanted a Valentine’s wine gift that felt thoughtful without being too formal, this is exactly the sort of pair I’d choose to open and enjoy together."

What’s Inside?

Tohu Sauvignon Blanc, Marlborough, New Zealand, 13.5% ABV

This Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc is bright, expressive and full of life. Expect layers of sweet tropical fruit alongside lemon, lime and crunchy green apple, all lifted by a zesty mineral edge. Dry, focused and refreshing, it finishes with real purity and length – a brilliant example of why New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc remains so popular.

Bodegas Palacio, Glorioso Reserva, Rioja, Spain, 14% ABV

A Rioja Reserva that delivers exactly what you want from the style. Generous red and dark berry fruit is beautifully integrated with well-judged oak, adding notes of vanilla, spice and warmth. The texture is smooth and silky, with enough structure to keep it interesting. A natural partner for grilled lamb chops, roast meats or a relaxed evening in.

We’ve included gift wrap with all our wine gifts to ensure they arrive looking beautiful. This red and white wine gift is presented in our classic navy gift box, finished with a Reserve Wines gift tag. You can also add a free personalised message – making it a polished choice for birthdays, thank-yous or elegant wine valentines presents.
