About this deal

The dried apricot, honey and sweet biscuit flavours of botrytis-affected Sémillon make it a sublime match for many cakes and desserts.

The different ways in which these wines are produced give a myriad different flavours ranging from candied citrus fruits and grapes, butterscotch and caramel, through to dried fruits such as dates and figs and nuts. Lyme Bay Christmas Pudding Wine has a delicious warming taste that embodies the character of a classic Christmas Pudding. If you find yourself with leftover Christmas Pudding we have a couple of suggestions for making the most of it. The marmalade tones in this luscious pudding wine make it even better if there’s a hint of orange in your chocolate torte. Velvety smooth with notes of nougat and roasted nuts, it’s a lovely flavour and texture match for white chocolate, as well as creamy desserts like sherry trifle.Once the liquid has cooled you can start filtering it into a clean saucepan using the sieve, muslin and ladle. You can bottle the wine once it has cleared and finished fermenting, usually after at least 3 months. But with all the different styles available, from sumptuous Sauternes to rich, sticky muscats, how do you start with choosing the perfect pudding partner? Granulated Sugar, Citric (Monohydrate), Water, Na2s2o5 (Sodium Metabisulphite), Potassium Sorbate, Metatartaric Acid, Spice Flavour (Mulled Wine), Potable Ethanol (96. Luscious and honeyed yet crisp, it’s perfectly balanced and a cracking pairing for fruity cheesecakes and soufflés.

The Weingut Schales Silvaner Eiswein is a fabulous example of German Eiswein and great with Christmas Cake. Add the bananas (skins as well), the sultanas or raisins and the tine of grapefruit segments and simmer your concoction for about an hour. Contrast intensity – With a rich and intense pudding, pick a highly acidic wine to help cut through the sweetness and provide a refreshing contrast. Rich, luscious and honey-like, with aromas of spiced apple strudel, candied apricots and a citrus core, this wine is absolutely divine.When it comes to bringing it all together and enjoying a glass of dessert wine with your favourite festive puddings, there are a few handy tips for how to nail these sweet pairings. Not strictly speaking a pudding wine (it’s medium dry in style) but delicious with puddings nonetheless! They tend to combine fresh and fruity flavours with warm spices, chocolate and raisins which complement Christmas Pudding.

A full box also helps to reduce the small chance of damage, as empty compartments collapsing can be a cause of this. There are no hard and fast rules for wine at this time of year as we tend to eat such a wide range of foods that it is difficult to find wines to complement all of the different flavours. I am passionate about good quality wine and set up Wines With Attitude to share that passion with other wine lovers. You would have been far better off using the ingredients of a pudding less those which are not appropriate.In the unlikely event of any broken glass we would recommend to leave the broken glass in the box and only extract those bottles that are undamaged.

Nobody does it like the French when it comes to Sémillon-based dessert wines, so look to the subregions of Bordeaux – The Château du Seuil Cerons and Château Gravas Sauternes are both sensational options, and also match wonderfully with creamy desserts like crème brûlée, and apple tarts.Lemon tart is not the easiest to pair with wine as not only do you need to match the sweetness but also the tangy citrus flavours.
