London, 6 December 2016: Wine lovers will have a little more cash in hand to stock up on tipples for the Christmas table while on a short break to Alsace with SmoothRed (020 8877 4940; www.smoothred.co.uk).

The specialist in tailor-made wine tours and holidays has knocked £100 per person off a two-night trip to the region. Guests will stay at a three-star hotel in Strasbourg and enjoy a tasting at a boutique wine shop and a full-day private tour of nearby vineyards, including four winery visits. While in the city, guests can also experience Europe's oldest Christmas market, Christkindelsmärik, which runs until 24 December.

Price £479 per person, reduced from £579, based on two sharing, including return flights, subject to availability.

Christmas gift ideas…

A trip to the vineyards in 2017 is a great idea for an extra-special gift. And SmoothRed can help break the exciting news on Christmas morning in the shape of a stylish wooden gift box containing the holiday itinerary and an appropriate bottle of wine for a taste of what's to come. 

SmoothRed also offers a selection of gift vouchers. Starting at £100, they can be redeemed on any of its wide range of travel packages.
