For some of us what were drinking on Christmas Day is almost as important as what were eating - so how to pick your festive booze?

We've enlisted the help of local experts Wild Ferment in the Kings Mile to bring you some recommendations.

First up - what to pair with your good old traditional turkey?

It may be white meat but it's usually served with red wine - a traditional choice would be something like a Beaujolais.

However, Wild Ferments Manager, Daniel Beedle, says they're suggesting a cheeky alternative - a lightly sparkling Shiraz.

He recommends Peter Lehmann Black Queen Sparkling Shiraz.

Then there's the Christmas pudding - how to make the most of it with the perfect pudding wine?

Well, as the sign above it in Wild Ferment says, Stanton and Killeen's Rutherglen Muscat is Christmas pudding in a glass - making it the ideal accompaniment or tasty on its own!
