I’m in a festive mood and my fertile mind is full of wine, so I decided to write a wine song to the tune of The Twelve Days of Christmas. Try it, it sounds good and it will make you smile. In fact, any of these wines will.

“On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me a bottle of Romanee Conti.

On the second day of Christmas my true love gave to me ... two Bitch Grenache and a bottle of Romanee Conti.
