No one says that picnic hampers need to be large. A simple selection of options can be a refreshing change. When thinking about a picnic, one most think about having a glass of wine with an assortment of food to go with it. No one says that the hamper must overflow with food options. Well-thought out options make a bigger impact that a large variety of foods stuffed into a single basket. One of these simple picnic hampers is an opportunity for a romantic evening at home or a quick lunch in the park with a special person.
Wine must be the basis of any good hamper. A Bordeaux Rouge is a great option. Bordeaux wines have a well-deserved reputation for producing excellent wines at many price points. A Bordeaux Rouge brings this beautiful flavour home. The wines often come from small family owned properties that have generations of care and attention. This shows in the smooth flavours with hints of fruit in the fragrances.
To go along with the Bordeaux Rouge, picnic hampers need the perfect food items. Pate is a great choice. One option is venison pate, known as Pate de Chevreuil. This pate works quite well with cheeses as well as a good red wine. Cheese selection is just as important however. A nice smoked Yorkshire or Cheddar has the texture and body to hold up to the red wine and pate without being extremely heavy. Adding oatcakes to the mix is best way to finish these picnic hampers.
Give the gift of a lazy afternoon in a Picnic Hamper. Choose classics like wine, cheese and pate or go for the sweet and savouries - a hamper that also includes biscuits, marmalades, cakes, brownies, salmon, coffee, teas and more. Best of all, no worries at this picnic. We'll pack the hamper - you relax!

Dear Sir/Madam, I just wanted to express my sincere thanks for the wonderful arrangement delivered to JH Kenyon Funeral Directors on Wednesday 25th January. I was unable to attend the funeral myself, but was told by other family members who were able to attend, that the arrangement was glorious. At last I have found a florist that has retained a ‘personal touch’ (which makes such a difference when you`re trying to convey your sentiments via flowers) whilst providing excellent UK coverage. Thank you so much. Marie
