Cheers, Dad!

Father’s Day Drinks Gift Guide

Dads, generally, never ask for much. They sacrifice a lot, work tirelessly and ensure that we have the opportunities that they never had. Once a year, we dedicate a special day to celebrate our doting dads with love and affection.

This year has been tough and we all, especially our dads, can use some #metime. That is why celebrating Father’s Day this year with some drinks and a nice movie at home can be one of the best ideas!

Here are some refreshing drink ideas for this father’s day. From high-end sparkling wine, to value-for-money bundles and even non-alcoholic spirits, there’s something to suit every taste.

Nyetimber

Nyetimber is England’s leading producer of English Sparkling Wine, and 1086, their Prestige Cuvee, is a result of over a decade of planning and ageing and is made from a precious selection of over 90 exceptional wine parcels.

1086 is produced entirely from 100% estate-grown fruit, with a parcel-by-parcel selection from the greensand soils of West Sussex, and would make a decadent Father’s Day gift to be enjoyed at home.

Nyetimber 1086 is available to purchase online in Singapore at Analogue Wine Merchants and is priced at S$400.

Angra Wines & Spirits

In celebration of oenophile Fathers and families across Singapore, ANGRA Wine & Spirit have curated three exclusive bundles of wine, designed to pair with personalities.

Available to purchase online for a limited time only, the Sommelier-approved selections have been created especially for Father’s Day, playfully encouraging shoppers to match their dads with one of three wine-associated traits, before gifting him a selection of bottles to try at home.

Refined S$398 (reduced from S$492): Appealing to elegant, gentlemanly types, the REFINED bundle features a selection of red and white wine, including Billecart Salmon Brut Reserve; the ideal partner for every occasion. Also featured is Sebastien Dampt Chablis 2017 – Sébastien is a rising star of Chablis, and is part of a dynasty that has been making wine in the region for over 150 years – and a range of new and old-world reds, such as the full-bodied Collosorbo Brunello di Montalcino 2014.

Brilliant S$288 (reduced from S$319): BRILLIANT wines for brilliant dads; this bundle features five of Angra’s top Italian picks, including the decisive, full-bodied La Tunella Pinot Grigio 2018 and the easy, fresh Zardetto Molin Prosecco Superiore DOCG, which has a salty, round and lively structure. Also included is Arlequin Shiraz 2016, which is full flavoured and luscious, depicting berries and black pepper, and will live for many years.

Lively S$198 (reduced from S$255): Much like a LIVELY wine, refreshing, surprising flavours are a key component of this bundle. Whilst Tomero Malbec 2017 boasts a fresh entry and a bright, juicy mouthfeel, followed by a full and spicy finish, Zardetto Porta Monticano Extra Dry NV is smooth, yet dry, with fresh aromatic quality and fruity aromas.

Lyre’s

Many years in the making, Lyre’s is a range of 13 different spirits – the American Malt would be the perfect non-alcoholic Father’s Day gift, as it looks, tastes and sashays around the palate just like the original alcoholic version.

Australian-based Lyre’s sources the finest all-natural essences, extracts and distillates from the four corners of the globe to craft spirits that to pay homage to the flavours of the world’s most time tested cocktails.

Lyre’s can be purchased on Amazon.sg at S$52, other retailers to follow soon.
