Wines of Xmas Past

So I want to hear about what you do for Xmas drinking.
I for one am big on sharing wine with the people I am with. But also pitching the wine to the people I am with. My lovely mother-in-law likes wine but generally hates anything I bring that is too structured or 'serious'. So on the big day it is a range of interesting wines that are approachable for those who don't take it as seriously as I do.
However, the next day is all about me. It is an annual tradition that came about because boxing day I was usually on my own watching the cricket. It is 'Burgundy on Boxing Day' and it is the best way to spend boxing day in my humble opinion.
For reasons unknown to me I had kept everyone one of those bottles until recently (pictured below).

A lot of Boxing Day hours were passed with this company.
A bottle of Burgundy (my choosing) to the first person to name all the wines in the line up!

What I want to know, is what you do with your Xmas drinking? Do you go all out or do you not really care? I want to hear it all.
