Lobster Reef Sea Breeze Sauvignon Blanc

Look, if you’re like us, a lobster dinner is probs off the cards this V-Day. (Ceebs even asking what “Market Price” is). Thankfully, you can still spring for this stunner of the same name. This light white is summer in a bottle - you simply can’t go wrong.

Have you thought about going bougie on a budget? Well, this is the place to start. Rich berries, beautifully fine tannins and a moreish taste – it’s the perfect budget red that tastes like a million bucks.
Greasy Fingers Shiraz
Ginato Pompelmo Gin

This gin is definitely for the creative one in your life. Not only does it come in this STUNNING glass bottle, but it’s also a great cocktail base for a unique spin on the classics. Thanks in part to the colour, but mainly the punchy grapefruit flavour it hits you with.

If your date’s still going strong with their ‘no-sugar NY resolution’, then reach for these tinnies. It cuts down on the sweetness of traditional ginger beer, but doesn’t lose any of the spice. For anyone who’s not much of a beer drinker, but are partial to a premix, this is a fantastic choice.

Baller alert! Ok moneybags, we get it. You wouldn’t be caught dead in an Uber Pool and you pay for paper bags every time you‘re at Woolies. THAT’S COOL… I GUESS. But in all seriousness, a silky smooth peppery finish is what you canexpect from the guys at Patron. Enjoy neat or over ice - either way, you’re in for a treat.

A perfect pick for those outdoorsy types. Light, fresh and fruity – basically everything good about the warmer months, in a pretty can. If you and your partner are doing a picnic for V-Day (so cute), we highly recommend bringing these along as a gift (that you eventually get stuck into).
