"safest" bottle of spirits for goodwill gesture!

[Andeh1]

Long story short, buying a house off a chap who lost his wife earlier this year. He is wanting to move abroad to be with his remaining family, and Christmas & covid plod closer. He is getting really frustrated over the speed of the process and increasingly emotive. He disputes our solicitor's due diligence, but I do feel he is being too emotive & unfair in the reasonable asks on him.

There is very little we can do without exposing ourselves to risk, plenty of frustration at our end as well... However, before frustrations boil over I want to buy & get delivered to his house a bottle of something as a small token gesture of "we are frustrated as well, doing all we can. Please accept this as thanks for bearing with us."

However, I have no idea what he drinks. He is late 60s at my guess, so asking the pistonheads collective a "safe" £25 amazon bottle of something recommended? He does drink, i clocked wine on a shelf during the viewing.

Thanks

Ok, thanks guys! You've got me convinced.

I'll buy some wine and drop it round later today. Hopefully he doesn't beat me over the head with it...
