How many times do I have to ask your heart to come over?

How many times do I have to ask your soul to come over?

How many times do I have to ask your mind to come over?

Today's Wine-vent bottle is a Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant blend and is just brilliant. Old world meets new world, with quality of fruit the name of the game: Ursprung Durch Technik.

(apologies to any German speakers. Also, other makes of quality German car are available.)

In yet another appearance (it's almost as if he's the most willing member of staff to piss about on camera), it's Gus, back to show you how it's done.

  You keep folding those napkins, Gus.

I think we could all use a little pick me up today, so here is a whole bottle of it - the delicious and frothy Tosat Prosecco. Pure & clean fruit with everyone’s favourite lemon sherbet blast - dry but with good richness, this is the perfect pre-Christmas bottle.

We got Fabio in Soho to grow a special Christmas Beard so he'd look extra King-ly to show it off for us. Also note the very professional pen behind the ear.

Madeira? What is that - a cake? Something sweet and sickly and old? NO! (well, possibly old, but we prefer 'perfectly aged') It's a hit of blindingly refreshing acidity, super-ripe citrus & dried fruit flavours, all made possible through the Canteira method, which means the wine was aged for 5 years in barrels hot attics.

Fortify yourself this Saturday with a bottle for only £13.50 instead of £29.00. Here's Mya from Marylebone to show just how happy it makes her. 

(please note the VERY glamorous surroundings of the Vinoteca Maryleone office. Nothing but the best behind the scenes here you know)

To end the working week here on the Vinoteca Wine-vent Calendar, we have a southern French blend with Tinta Barocca thrown in, made by the ace Eben Sadie in Swartland. If you can't bring yourself back from the brink of post-office-piss-up for this, there's no hope for you. Beautifully made, expressive, full & structured, earthy & dark fruited, the Sequillo Red will have you back to shipshape Christmas party fashion in no time.

Something sweet for the weekend behind the Wine-vent Window today - it's the stunning Cadillac from Chateau Fayau. With deep apricot, marmalade & fresh citrus flavours, it's fantastic with all sorts of creamy and fruity desserts, as well as rich liver parfait. Definitely a fantastic bottle for some pre-Christmas indulgence.

Here's Pedro at Chiswick giving it the once-over. He approves.

Particuarly at today's shop price of just £15.95 instead of the usual £33.45.

Something fresh, full and vital today - in fact, made from the grape variety Vital and grown on limestone mountain sides in Portugal. Savoury & lemon zesty, hints of vanilla and a very pure finish will liven up your Thursday no end.

Here is Ida, our General Manager from Marylebone, who loves this wine so much that she's seeing stars.
