Christmas is the season for gifts, great food and celebrations and more so, it's the season to relish the wine! So, go on and check out these three wines to complement your Christmas dinner.

These wines will pair perfectly with all your cheesy and pungent dishes as also with your smoked hams. It will help balance out the flavours and they even make for great celebratory starters!
The Sula Sauvignon Blanc is a favourite with many. It is herbaceous, crisp and dry and it helps complement chicken, turkey and even quail perfectly. With the aroma of bell peppers, tropical fruits like passion fruit and gooseberry, the crisp citrusy flavour makes for a great pairing with all your yummy proteins.
Kumala Chardonnay too has a zesty citrusy aroma that combines well with fruits like dried peach and apricot, followed by lime and grapefruit flavours on the palate, culminating with a lingering aftertaste. This wine makes for the ideal one to wash down a gravy-heavy meal, especially one that's replete with mashed potatoes. Tip: Any Chardonnay is best paired with foods that are mild and subtle and are not too pungent or spicy.
