Wines that bring that holiday feeling home
Not travelling this bank holiday? Let your wine rack do the transporting. From pale Provençal rosé to celebration-ready Champagne, these destination-inspired bottles are made for sunshine sipping - helping you discover new favourites while bringing the spirit of far-flung terraces, coastal escapes and golden-hour getaways straight to your glass.
The vibe: A golden-hour picnic in Provence
The wine: Pale Pig Rosé
Trot into the sunlit charm of Provence with this pale pink powerhouse. A vibrant Coteaux d’Aix-en-Provence rosé, Pale Pig is bright, elegant and effortlessly refreshing, with delicate aromas of strawberry, peach and citrus that call to mind long lunches, sun-warmed terraces and slow afternoons by the coast.
Its crisp, dry style makes it a natural partner for summer grazing: think charcuterie, creamy cheeses, grilled prawns, Niçoise-style salads and bowls of fresh berries. Chill it well, pour generously and let it bring a little Riviera spirit to wherever you are. And with Avios to collect on every bottle, that Provençal getaway may feel just a little closer.
The vibe: A backyard grill in Tuscany
The wine: Bread & Butter Pinot Noir
Elegant, easy-going and full of charm, Bread & Butter Pinot Noir is the kind of red that slips effortlessly into a relaxed summer dinner. Crafted from grapes grown across California’s coastal regions and cooler inland areas, including Monterey and Santa Barbara, it offers soft tannins, balanced acidity and plenty of ripe red-fruit character.
Expect mature berries, a hint of plum and gentle spice from time spent in French and American oak. It’s a ruby-hued crowd-pleaser that pairs beautifully with grilled chicken, roasted peppers, honey-glazed pork or anything served outdoors as the evening cools. A glass in hand, Avios collecting in the background - your next Italian-inspired escape is already taking shape.
The vibe: A sunset yacht cruise on the Côte d’Azur
The fizz: Moët & Chandon Imperial Brut NV Champagne
For moments that call for polish, Moët & Chandon Imperial Brut NV Champagne is a timeless choice. Blending Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier, this non-vintage Champagne delivers the house’s signature balance of fruit, freshness and finesse.
Look out for lively notes of green apple, pear and citrus, carried by delicate bubbles and a soft golden glow. Whether you’re celebrating properly or simply elevating a bank holiday evening, it brings a touch of Riviera glamour to the occasion. Add the Avios you’ll collect when you buy, and you’re one pour closer to your next sparkling getaway.
The vibe: Tapas on a sun-drenched terrace in Seville
The wine: Cabalié
Rich, generous and full of character, Cabalié is inspired by the bold wines once enjoyed in Southern France. Made using small, flavour-packed grapes from old, low-yield vines, it’s a deeply satisfying red with a velvety texture and layers of ripe raspberry, blackberry, chocolate and coffee.
It’s a natural match for Spanish-style sharing plates: salty olives, spicy chorizo, roasted vegetables and manchego all sit beautifully alongside its lush fruit and smooth finish. For an even more indulgent pairing, try it with a slice of tarta de Santiago. Avios in the bank, glass in hand - Seville suddenly feels within reach.
The vibe: A stylish rooftop soirée in Paris
The fizz: Veuve Clicquot Brut Yellow Label Champagne NV
Few bottles feel as instantly celebratory as Veuve Clicquot Brut Yellow Label Champagne NV. The historic house dates back to 1772, with Madame Clicquot’s pioneering spirit still central to its story - including her role in developing the riddling table, a technique that helped transform Champagne production.
In the glass, expect clarity, brightness and beautifully balanced flavours: lively citrus and orchard fruits layered with subtle brioche and vanilla notes. It’s chic, confident and made for aperitifs, canapés and rooftop-style toasts. A very Parisian reason to collect and spend Avios.
The vibe: A chilled hike on the island of Madeira
The wine: No.8 Wire Sauvignon Blanc
Fresh, aromatic and full of energy, No.8 Wire Sauvignon Blanc comes from Marlborough, New Zealand’s most famous Sauvignon Blanc region. It bursts with tropical fruit notes such as passionfruit and guava, alongside grapefruit, gooseberry, tomato leaf and fresh-cut grass.
Best enjoyed young, when its zesty acidity and fragrance are at their peak, it’s a brilliant match for seafood, soft young cheeses, garden salads, sashimi and vibrant Asian-inspired dishes such as lemongrass chicken. Crisp, bright and refreshing, it’s made for green views, coastal breezes and dreaming of your next Avios-powered adventure.
