The Holiday Buying Guide

The holidays are the merriest time of the year ... and perhaps the most exhausting. Let us help make things a bit simpler for you—this week’s newsletter is your one-stop shop for rewarding holiday picks. We’ve got bottles to give, bottles to share, plus a few for your own stockings. When friends come around, pop the cork on a Baron Fuenté Champagne and follow it up with a 1.5L magnum of fan-favorite Bois-Malot from Bordeaux’s fantastic 2015 vintage for only $25.99. For Hannukah dinner, try pouring the Domaine Belle “Cuvée Louis Belle” Crozes-Hermitage, the perfect sumptuous, complex Syrah for your brisket. For the Christmas ham, why not pull out all the stops, and pair it with Domaine Bouchard’s jaw-dropping Echézeaux Grand Cru?

Those on your nice lists will love one of the amazing spirits sets our Buyers have procured—from the Maguey Melate Mezcal tasting pack to the David Lebovitz Drinking French bar pack. Give your elves Taylor 20 Year Tawny Port, because we know they love a tawny with Bûche De Noël. And as for Santa, set out a bottle of the Benanti Etna Bianco so he can dream of vacationing on Sicily as soon as his shift is over.

Make sure to order early this year, but don't fret—if you’re still looking for a last-minute idea, give a gift subscription to one of our wine clubs or reward someone with a paper or electronic K&L gift card. These one-size-fits-all gifts will delight any wine or spirits aficionado.
