This Boozy Advent Calendar Will Let You Unwrap a Bottle of Wine on Each of the 12 Days of Christmas
Wine subscription service Good Pair Days is packaging up its best wines of the year — consider it an early Christmas present to yourself.
Those chocolate-filled advent calendars are fun and all, but after 12 months of aiming for a spot on Santa's 'nice' list, a few wines feels like a more fitting reward. Wine subscription club Good Pair Days agrees, so it's put together the ultimate pre-Christmas treat for grownups: the 12 Wines of Christmas Advent Calendar.
The festive box features 12 different full-sized bottles of wine, as chosen by the Good Pair Days experts. They're each hidden behind a pop-out cardboard door and individually wrapped so each one is a little surprise gift. And the options are endless. You can gift the box to yourself and unwrap one wine at a time in the lead-up to December 25, or snap one up as an early Christmas present for that wine-loving mate. Or, simply have an advent box on hand so that you're extra prepared for the calendar of silly season parties to come.
There are three boxes to choose from: one with reds, one with all chillable wines (sparkling, whites and rosés) and one with a mix of the two. Then, you decide how expensive you want to go — the cheapest is $189 and the most spenny is $465. And while you won't know what wines are in them until you open the box, you can be reassured that there are some ripper drops in there as the bottles have been picked from the highest rated of Good Pair Days' local and international collection. Wine pairing suggestions, tasting notes and recipes are also included.
Good Pair Days (previously The Wine Gallery) was founded back in 2015 by mates Tom Walenkamp, Beto de Castro Moreira and acclaimed sommelier and Bar Liberty co-owner Banjo Harris Plane. It's a personalised wine subscription service that aims to hook you up with your perfect vinous matches through an expert curation and a nifty wine taste tester app.
The 12 Wines of Christmas Advent Calendar packs are available now via Good Pair Days.
