As is customary during the holiday season one must bring a bottle of wine to your abundance of family Christmas events, but a decent bottle of plonk full-bodied and rich enough to impress your relatives doesn’t need to break the bank.
What, with an overwhelming number of get-togethers to attend during the Christmas period, you can be forgiven for wanting to skimp on your choice of wine by choosing the cheaper (notably less yummy tasting) chard.
Luckily for you (and us) a $7 bottle of wine from Coles was just named one of Australia’s finest drops, which means you can sort yourself out for the Christmas brunch, lunch and dinner for an incredibly reasonable price.
The Story Bay Semillion Sauvignon Blanc has been officially crowned the best wine in Oz under $20 by Winestate’s Wine of the Year Awards by an expert panel of winemakers, beating out 2500 wines in the process.

Well, that’s our Christmas drink sorted then.
