Bold Reds & Chardonnays Mixed Case
12 bottles per case
Delivery timeline: We require one full case of each wine in order to build and fulfill four mixed cases. This process usually takes about 10-15 business days but may vary.
A little boldness goes a long way. This curated lineup brings together expressive reds and rich, textured Chardonnays, with plenty of depth, character and personality. Made for dinner-party pours, cozy nights in and those moments when only a really good glass will do.
3 bottles x Land of Hope Classic Chardonnay 2023 (Stellenbosch, South Africa)
White | Chardonnay
Established in 2007 by the folks at Radford Dale winery in South Africa, the Land of Hope project aims to produce and market a range of premium wines wherein 50% of all profits are directed back towards previously disadvantaged employees, their families, and dependents. A vibrant Chardonnay with aromas of pineapple, mango, vanilla, and delicate florals, followed by a palate of juicy peach, citrus zest, and subtle creamy oak. Well-balanced and expressive, it pairs beautifully with grilled seafood like prawns or lobster, showcasing the warmth and character of South African winemaking.
3 bottles x Maison Mahaut Bourgogne Chardonnay 2023 (Burgundy, France)
White | Chardonnay
Maison Mahaut captures everything we love about white Burgundy — classic Chardonnay, exceptional value, and effortless drinkability. Sourced from select vineyards across Burgundy, the wine is fermented in stainless steel with a touch of oak ageing to preserve its freshness while adding subtle texture and depth. The kind of bottle you'll reach for again and again, whether paired with roast chicken, grilled seafood, creamy pastas, or simply enjoyed on its own.
3 bottles x Pago Aylés Cuvée A 2024 (Aragón, Spain)
Red | Cabernet Sauvignon, Tempranillo, Garnacha, Merlot
Finca Aylés is located in the northeast of Spain, near the city of Zaragoza, halfway between Madrid and Barcelona. The wine displays a pronounced intensity on the nose, well defined, with an extraordinarily complex and wide range of aromas; think dark red fruits, ink, and spices. On the palate the wine is clearly defined by its elegance and ripe fruit intensity. It's harmonious and well balanced leading to a rich finish. It's the perfect wine to pair with rich meats and anything on the BBQ.
Red | Cabernet Sauvignon
Crafted from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes and produced at a yield of 40 hectoliters per hectare, these vines thrive in gravelly-sandy loam soils on the Agrières hillsides, near the estuary, which contribute to the wine’s distinctive character and structure. Following fermentation, the wine is aged for 16 months in 225-liter barrels, allowing it to develop depth, complexity, and refined balance. On the nose, it reveals woody, vanilla, and toasty aromas complemented by the freshness of red fruits. The palate is powerful and full-bodied, with enveloping tannins and a long, aromatic finish.
About the Winery
Château Haut-Grelot
Château Haut Grelot is located in Saint Ciers Sur Gironde, approximately 50 kms north of Bordeaux, on the right bank of the Gironde Estuary. It was established by the Bonneau family in 1922 and now run but the 4th Generation. Today Château Haut-Grelot comprises 58 hectares of vineyards and is run by Céline and Julien, who was recently awarded the title 'Best Young Talent' in Bordeaux.
The vineyards are made up of sandy-gravel on the hillsides bordering the Gironde Estuary and sand-clay-silt on the hillsides further inland. Blaye Côtes de Bordeaux benefits from an ideal microclimate where there is a high level of sunshine and enough rain to guarantee the perfect environment for grape production. As a result the reds are fruity and concentrated and the whites are fresh, vibrant and delicate.
Grains d'Estuaire
Julien Bonneau, (Château Haut Grelot in the Blayais), and his friend Alexandre Lavigne, restaurateur in Saint-Palais-sur-Mer, created in 2014 a range of wines, Grains d'Estuaire, from 'a 10 ha vineyard located in Saint-Bonnet-sur-Gironde, in the south of Charente-Maritime.
Maison Arnaud Baillot
Arnaud Baillot is a young winemaker based in Beaune, in the heart of the Côte de Beaune. Owner and winemaker, he has been working with lutte raisonnée since 2014 and supplements his Domaine with judicious grape purchases.
As a winemaker, he is passionate about the diversity of wine profiles Burgundy has to offer. So he teams up with Laure Hudelot-Noellat, his wife and granddaughter from the eponymous Domaine, based in Chambolle-Musigny. Together, they produce a comprehensive range of wines, from regional appellation to Grand Cru. Arnaud is very keen to get the best out of every stage of the process, which means he selects the origin of his grapes with the utmost care. He oversees the entire winemaking process, carefully selects his barrels according to the nuances he wishes to bring (wood origin, cooper, toasting, grain, etc.) and finally applies his own ageing policy according to the cuvées... nothing is left to chance, because the treasures a terroir brings are to be earned!
Pago Aylés
Pago Aylés was founded by Federico Ramón, who in 2003 began his dream of classifying this unique land as the first Vino de Pago in the Aragon region. In the Spanish wine quality pyramid, the Pago stands as a top tier or grand cru winery. Just before Federico died, his dream came true in 2010, as Aylés became the 10th Vino de Pago in Spain.
Today his three children continue to produce wines from this special land. The vineyard site has a long history of winemaking, dating back to the 12th century by Spanish monks. Influenced by the River Huerva and the Monte San Pablo mountain, the soil is a mixture of clay, limestone and chalk – ideal for making high-quality wine. Caves, ravines and old river beds can be found all over the estate, which is brimming with wildlife.
Radford Dale
Radford Dale and The Winery of Good Hope are two brands made by the same people, in the same winery. The team behind these wineries has been an industry leader since the 1990s in chemical free farming, and more recently in low and no sulfur winemaking. They are a founding member of PIWOSA (Premium Independent Wineries of South Africa) which sets ethical, environmental and social uplift standards. Recognizing the social inequality present in South Africa Radford Dale has also set up a trust called Land of Hope to help facilitate bright futures for children, focusing heavily on education.
Alex Dale who owns and manages both projects is an Englishman who grew up spending summers in Burgundy, France. He moved there in his late teens to follow a passion for winemaking and also opened a wine bar in Beaune. He lived in Burgundy for many years before moving to South Africa in 1998, starting Radford Dale with Ben Radford, an Australian. The idea was to produce wines using modern techniques and technology with a healthy respect for tradition, something Alex came to understand well while living in Burgundy.
Wines are made with minimal intervention in order to best express each vineyard’s individuality.
