Every pairing

Bubbles for a party that is never quite as happy as it looks.

The wine Regency England actually drank — with a sharp wit to match.

Volcanic, aristocratic, and quietly aware that everything is changing.

A café carafe of Paris, hungry and happy.

Dark, peppery and a little haunted — like Manderley after midnight.

Claret for an English country house, poured with perfect restraint.

Delicate, melancholy and unmistakably Japanese.

A grape once thought lost, for a novel where nothing stays lost for long.

Bone-dry and salt-sprayed, for a very long voyage.

The monks perfected this wine. Drink it while one solves a murder.

A golden nightcap from the heart of the old Orient Express route.

Deep, dark and passionate — a red as grand as a Russian novel.

Crisp as a New England morning and full of warmth.

Something warming by the fire while the wind howls across the moors.

Straight from the novel’s most famous summer picnic.

Ancient Greek intensity for a campus thriller obsessed with the classics.

A book lover’s mystery, with a wine aged as patiently as an old library.
