Happy New Year from Humble Grape: Let’s Make 2025 Uncorked and Unforgettable!
Welcome to 2025! Whether your resolutions include drinking less (but better), exploring new horizons, or simply making it to February with some semblance of grace, Humble Grape has your back. Let’s dive into what’s happening this January and how we can help you kick-start the year with style, sophistication, and, of course, exceptional wine.
Your Pick: Dry Jan or Try Jan?
Dry January has become a global tradition for millions, and we’re here to make it as enjoyable as possible—yes, even without the alcohol. This month, we’re highlighting some incredible dry wines that will elevate your palate and mood:
Domaine Allimant-Laugner Crémant d'Alsace Rosé, NV, Alsace, France — £25.50
Château Edmus, Saint Emilion Grand Cru, 2015, Bordeaux, France (Magnum) — £163.80
Or why not embrace Try January? Instead of skipping wine altogether, use this month as an opportunity to:
Explore a grape variety you’ve never tried.
Discover a region you’ve only dreamed of visiting.
And for those who want to go alcohol-free, we’ve added a fantastic non-alcoholic wine to our portfolio—perfect for Dry Jan enthusiasts.
