The weather’s (mostly) still rubbish but I’m all about finding the small joys. Specifically, having something lovely in my glass at the end of the day. I’d throw in a long, relaxing bath but given that someone’s usually nicked all the hot water, not to mention left damp towels all over the floor, the chances of that happening in this house are slim to none. So straight to wine it is. And not just for me. I’ve got 12 bottles of wine worth over £140 to give away to one of you too! The folk at Bonterra, one of my all time favourite Californian wine producers, have kindly offered six bottles of their gorgeous organic Chardonnay and six of their organic Cabernet Sauvignon for one fellow knackered wine lover. Bonterra’s vineyards have been farmed organically for over 30 years and they really know what they’re doing. I’ve always loved the ripe, warm flavours of their wines, like little hugs for the taste buds. Click on this week’s wine reviews for more information on the two up for grabs and to be in with a chance of winning just leave a comment below on the blog and we’ll pick a winner at random. Good luck!
T&Cs: UK residents only, must be over 18years old to enter. Competition closes on 30th June 2021 at 11.59pm. The winner will be notified by email and the prize will be sent to the winner after that date.
This post is sponsored by Bonterra Vineyards. Visit Bonterra.com for more information.

Lots of rain so far with the promise of more to come. What better way to bring a little California our way and brighten up the day. Bonterra!
Amazing offer, something to enjoy while reading a good book 😜👌
These sound delicious- I have found so many new favourites since flooding you and maybe these will join my favourite list 😊
Damn auto predict – should say since following you! 😂

Sounds like the “puppies pebbles” to me.
Love California wines and both of these sound like they would hit the spot
Oooh lovely – Organic wine at a good price and available at Tesco too! I would love to try these and share with loved ones.
I do love Bonterra wines, but haven’t had them for a long time. I would love to try these as I’m sure they are wonderful. Just right for summer xx
I’m really enjoying the Chardonnay resurgence and this one sounds fab!
Yes please …I ❤️ Californian wine especially reds 🍷😊
Yes please, especially the Chardonnay! My sister can have the Sauvignon!!
Helen. I’ve a holiday booked with My Mum and Dad moved from pre Covid. My dad now is completely immobile but it’s a bungalow overlooking the sea. So not to be discouraged. I’ve booked a wheelchair accessible car and will pack everything he needs (except the kitchen sink). Throw the dogs in the back and make the best of it for a week. So if I win your wines they will come too and my Mum and I will enjoy them. They sound delicious.
I love a creamy Chardonnay, this sounds great with just a hint of oaky spice. A Californian cab sav has just got to be drunk…….
Ooooo they sound like a hug in a bottle 😊😋
Sunshine in a glass – would be blissful to share with friends 🤗
Oooo, they sound like just the thing to reward myself with after many night feeds
Would love to try the Chardonnay!
Oh this would be wonderful to enjoy with friends for our upcoming UK weekend staycation!
Here for the giveaway!.
Always love a giveaway… haven’t ever won so far thought so fingers crossed for this chance! 😁
Please, please, please, please, please pick me for these beautiful sounding wines. Can’t wait to try them (and also would be a relief to have a wine gift as I am currently going bankrupt after my addiction to buying, trying and sharing every wine that you recommend) :O) Thank you xxx
The only red I’ll drink is Californian, love to try this one! Thanks for the review, it sounds awesome!
I felt your pain with the rain recently! Would welcome an opportunity to try these wines 😁
Oo these both sound like bottled sunshine!
Big fan Helen, keep up the good reccomendations!
xx
I normally don’t drink anything except Chardonnay but could make an exception for some Cabernet!
Ohhh they both sound amazing, and either a lovely treat at the end of a busy day! 😃
Sunshine ☀️ in a glass (or 2)…. yes please 😊
Oo yes please. Love Bonterra especially as they are organic😍
Oh please they sound heavenly and from my favourite state of California. 💕
What a great idea to try in the bath with your partner. But would definitely need two bottles!!
One each 😂
I say, talk of bath time wines, if it’s good enough for the Romans to indulge then who am I to argue. In Vino Veritas!
These sound absolutely lush! Would be a lovely 20th anniversary treat! Organic too 👌
After the day I’ve just had, I would just love to curl in my PJs with a chilled glass of white or a warming glass of red x
These wines sound very tasty for a bbq in the sunshine!
These wines sound wonderful,. Butter, honey and BBQs, sounds an ideal summer.
I’ve never tried a Californian wine before and always seem to stick with what I know so would love to try something different. x
Little hugs for the tastebuds. Sounds absolutely perfect, to drink in or out of the bath.
The cab sounds fab – mouth filling and warming – just need to light that chiminea and sit back and revisit our honeymoon trip to California 30 years ago !
”A warming dollop of alcohol” Much better than putting the big quilt back on the bed!
They both sound delicious!
They both sound lovely!
Oh yes please 😊 sounds devine… would have enjoyed the Chardonnay today in the beautiful sunshine relaxing in the garden… after a few days gardening a well earned rest 👍
It would be great to win and try these wines. 😊
These wines sound interesting – it’s been a while since I’ve tried anything from USA
Always love your recommendations….let the sun shine and drink some wine ☀️
Californian chardonnay, my idea of heaven! yes please
These sound delicious – fingers crossed!
Would love to win these for my little sister who deserves a treat, and maybe she could teach me the difference between a Chardonnay and a Cabernet Sauvignon. As I am completely ignorant when it comes to a nice wine. 🤦🏼♀️🤞🏻
If we should win this splendid prize , in just one day I’m sure it would change everything! Wine to drink in the bath whilst reading classy literature! Maybe you could include a little Californian wine in your next novel necessitating a little Californian research trip?
They sound lovely 🥰 look forward to winning 😂 and trying them out 🍷
My experience of American wine has not been great! So would love to try two you recommend!
I always try to buy organic now Helen! I feel they have a truer taste & I don’t get a sore head if I’ve overindulged! HaHa! Plus that red looks SO inviting in your IKEA glass! Xx
These wines sound wonderful. Now that the weather has improved they will be perfect in garden with a barbecue. Thank you for the blog post.
I picked a bottle of the red up on your recommendation and you know what ??? It’s gorgeous ❤️
Heavenly! I’m looking forward to expanding my selection of organic wines. It’s a learning process but I’m glad that I’m making good choices with quality wines. 🍷
Love this now that the sun is shining 😊
Ooh these look amazing Helen! Would love to try
I love trying new wines, fingers crossed x
They both sound delicious… Maybe I need to detour via Tesco for the weekly shop this week!
Love love love! Look forward to trying 🍷🤩
