During this time of year when our tables are filled with warm, hearty feasts, there is nothing quite like a glass of red to round out the mood. Whether you’re after something full-bodied and fruity, or with a hint of darkness and spice, there are plenty of wintery wines that will be sure to warm you from the inside, out - and they don’t have to break the bank.

People can often be intimidated by the sophisticated reputation of red wines, and assume that the higher the price, the better the flavour. Rest assured that isn’t always the case, meaning a ‘bargain’ beverage can prove to be just as delicious.

We called on Jody Liddle, Category Manager at Jimmy Brings, to share with us her top picks for your very next dinner party, and what you can expect to experience from each drop.

  1. El Sonodor Tempranillo

El Sonador is the dreamer, the fantastical mystic, with their head in the cloud, and their heart on their sleeve. This wine is for those who live so in the moment, they can't see what is just around the corner.

Tastes like: Dark red, mysterious fruits.

Feels like: A premonition.

$24 RRP per 750ml bottle.

“Tempranillo is a full-bodied dry red wine native to Spain, it is medium to full bodied and similar in flavour to Shiraz.”

  1. Ciao Bella Sangiovese

An excessively crisp and ferociously flagrant Sangiovese from Italy. The rich notes, fully body and treacherous tannins will give your palate the sting it deserves.

Tastes like: Overconfidence.

Feels like: A dangerous intersection.

$23 RRP per 750ml bottle.

“Sangiovese is a versatile wine bold flavoured wine that pairs well with nearly all savoury food, particularly tomato-based dishes, making it suitable for any dinner table.”

  1. Macho Gaucho Malbec

An unquestionably succulent Malbec from the hyper adrenalised Mendoza region, with altitudinous cherries, deep chocolate and level headed spice.

Tastes like: The Summit.

Feels like: A persuasive argument.

$23 RRP per 750ml bottle.

“An Argentinian favourite, Malbec is fast becoming a favourite among Aussies too. With intense cherry, chocolate & spice flavours it pairs perfectly with steak or a roast.”

  1. King Salvatoro Grenache

$24 RRP per 750ml bottle.

“This King Salvatoro Grenache is a tasty, simple wine you can count on. A smooth and easy-to-drink beverage that pairs particularly well with roasts or spicy meals, thanks to its fruity yet peppery flavour.”

  1. Riddoch Cabernet Sauv

Succulent spicy plums on the nose, followed by bodacious blueberry on the palate, and a hauntingly smooth finish.

Tastes like: Sandstone walls.

Feels like: A heritage estate.

$22 RRP per 750ml bottle.

“Smooth & easy to drink, pairs well with roasts or spicy meals.”
