Christmas may have been and gone but there's always a need for gifts. We have gift cards, fantastic accessories and a full range of wooden boxed gift packs that were incredibly popular at Christmas and so have been kept on.

WINE OF THE WEEK
One of the most popular additions to the Wine Station wheelhouse last year was Wine of the Week. Super basic - the team here each pick a wine we haven't tasted in a while, we decide on the best and put some killer pricing on it. Tough job we know. Great value wines.

HALF BOTTLE
Don't like dry Jan? Me neither, instead of none, just do less. There's nothing like a high quality half bottle. This is a great solution when there's only one wine drinker in the equation, or if you focus on sparkling or white, but like a high end red with food. Also, the wine develops quicker in the half bottle, so 3 years of age will look more like 5 or 6.

BORDEAUX
This falls into the treat yourself January category! Bordeaux remains the most important major vinous expression - it contains all the big names. Age worthy, seasonally appropriate wines. Margaux, Pauillac, St. Emilion.....need I say more!

Monopole would lie smack in the centre.
