Father's Day is this Sunday, and whether your Dad is a wine lover, a whiskey devotee, or someone who simply appreciates a beautiful gift, we've got something that will make the day genuinely memorable. Here are our top picks, all available now with delivery in time for Sunday.
If you're looking for something truly special, the kind of gift that goes well beyond a nice bottle, we've put together something a little extraordinary. The ChĂąteau Martinet Wooden Gift Box includes a bottle of ChĂąteau Martinet Saint-Ămilion Grand Cru 2016, presented in a stunning wooden case, plus two tickets to our upcoming Pradel de Levaut Meet the Winemaker dinner on Thursday 25th June, valued at âŹ260. ChĂąteau Martinet is an eighteenth-century estate on the Right Bank of Bordeaux, planted on sandy-gravelly soils that give the wine its signature elegance. The 2016 is a
beautifully concentrated, world award-winning Grand Cru, smooth, complex, and built to last. It's the gift you give when you want to give an experience, not just a bottle, and we only have 4 tickets remaining!Â
Maybe Dad prefers his drams to his decanting?! In that case, our Redbreast 12 Year Old Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey Wooden Gift Box is the one. Redbreast 12 is the world's largest-selling Single Pot Still Irish whiskey for good reason, it scored 98/100 at the International Wine & Spirit Competition and has been winning awards since 2010. Triple distilled in traditional copper pot stills
at Midleton Distillery in Cork, it delivers that rich, creamy mouthfeel and deep complexity that makes it one of Ireland's most beloved expressions. Beautifully presented in a wooden gift box, it's a proper gift.Â
Another one for the whiskey lover, the Teeling Distillery Tour & Tasting Whiskey Hamper is a fantastic choice. Built around Teeling Small Batch, aged in ex-Bourbon barrels and finished in Central American rum casks for added depth, it comes complete with a Teeling flat cap, a branded Pot Still whiskey glass, a mini hip flask, and two tickets to a full tour of the Teeling Distillery in the Liberties.
It's a gift box that keeps on giving, well beyond Sunday.Â
Of course, sometimes the best gift is just a brilliant case of wine at a brilliant price. Right now our Summer Wine Sale is live with 20% off cases. So if Dad has a favourite region, grape, or a summer of entertaining ahead of him, this is the moment to stock him up. Whether he's a Bordeaux man, a Rioja devotee or an Italian enthusiast, there's something in the sale with his name on it in our Summer Wine Sale with 20% off.
And if you want a gift that lasts all the way into October, Earlybird tickets to our Rioja Wine Festival 2026 are still available from just âŹ40. Now in its fifth year, the Festival takes place at The Alex Hotel, Dublin 2 on Saturday 17th October, with over 150 wines to taste, a complimentary tasting glass and tote bag, a tasting booklet, charcuterie and cheeses, and the option to
add a Masterclass with a winemaker or with John Wilson of The Irish Times. It's another great day out with Dad to look forward to! Tickets have sold out every year since 2022, so if he loves Rioja, get in early.Â
Whatever you go for, I hope Sunday is a good one.
SlĂĄinte,
Will đ·

Teeling Distillery Tour & Tasting Whiskey Hamper
|
|
The flagship expression from Dublin's Teeling, the Small Batch Irish whiskey is made with a blend of malt and grain whiskeys, initially aged in ex-Bourbon barrels. Following that, the Teeling folks moved the whiskey over to casks that had previously held Central American rum! In these casks, the whiskey had an extra rest for up to 12 months, before being bottled at 46% ABV without any chill-filtration. Wonderfully full-flavoured, with plenty of fresh fruit,
creamy vanilla and lively spice notes to enjoy!
There is no expiry date so you can plan your visit any time

Wildeberg Coterie Grenache & Syrah - 6 Bottle Case
|
|
The Coterie wines draw upon a convergence of Wildeberg's tiny production pool of identified vineyards. Made with Wildeberg's cornerstone philosophies of minimal intervention winemaking, wild ferment and coarse filtration to capture the essence of the source vineyards and soilsWildebergâs rationale is to source the finest vineyards available to us across Franschhoek and the Coastal Region, from which cuvĂ©es are plucked to make Wildeberg and the Terroir Series releases In doing so
there remains a small yet definitive expression of all the vineyards we worked with, and its these cuvees that are again selected to go into Coterie by Wildeberg.
All fruit is hand harvested in February from selected sites in Franschhoek and Paarl. Both cultivars are fermented whole bunch, with some whole berry fruit, there is no crush, just a daily pump over during the natural fermentation. We want to express place over cultivar so this slow, gentle extraction gives wines truer of origin than winery. The components are racked to French and Austrian oak, new and old, for 10 months before the blend is decided. This blend is then allowed to marry
for 6 weeks prior to coarse filtration and bottling on the farm.
