Christmas dinner is the crowning glory of the festive season, a feast that calls for wines worthy of the occasion. Whether you are serving the traditional turkey, branching out with beef or lamb, or opting for elegant alternatives like duck, goose, or fish, the right bottle elevates every bite.

In Ireland, we usually eat Christmas dinners filled with the usual suspects of roast turkey, glazed ham, and every variety of potato, but have you ever wondered what dinners around the world look like? From Australia, celebrating in the sun, to Japan back-ordering KFC, families are brought together for the season in a variety of ways. Maybe we can add some of these traditions to our 2025 festive feasts.

The Maldron Hotel on Sandy Road is a modern building on the the fringes of the city, a landmark with its glazed exterior and its location opposite The Menlo Park Hotel in an area not lacking in hotels. The glass front points you towards the Headford Road, and inside, the high-vaulted reception space combines international airport chic and modern design which has been nicely updated since opening over a decade ago. Set back from the busy road that encircles the city, it also has the advantage of being just minutes from the centre of town with free underground parking. The grey and gold decor runs throughout and recent improvements keep the look low key and elegant.
