Delivery timeline: It requires four full cases of each wine in order for us to build and fulfill four mixed cases. This process usually takes about 7-10 business days but may vary.
We are beyond excited to launch our very first Chardonnay Mixed Case. Have a taste of the Jura, Chablis, Alto Adige and Wairarapa through our favourite grape.
Each mixed case includes 3 bottles of each.

White | Chardonnay
94 points by Wine Anorak
The Baud estate dates back to 1742. Today, ninth generation vignerons Clementine and Bastien Baud are making some of the best-value wines in Jura. This unique wine region is a narrow valley in the remote hills between Burgundy and Switzerland that was once covered by an ocean millions of years ago. If you kick a stone in a Jura vineyard, it will probably be a fossil!
Controlled oxidation at its finest. A beautiful juxtaposition of vibrant fruits aromas and nutty oxidative flavours. The Domaine Baud 'Cuvée Flor' presents an intense range of flavours, boasting concentrated honeysuckle, ripe apricot, candied meyer lemon, sourdough, honeycomb, and freshly grounded cloves. The wine attacks the palate with mouthwatering acidity, followed by citrus flesh, bruised golden delicious and burned honey, intensely mineral, with a nutty and umami finish.
Pairing suggestion: Pair this wine with comté cheese, cream-based baked fish, seafood, raclette, and poultry.

The Chardonnay Kleinstein presents rich concentrated fruit, a pleasant opulence and well balanced acidity. It has exotic aromas of pineapple, mango and honeydew melon with a touch of passion fruit and notes of banana and vanilla. The palate is elegant and fresh with a well balanced acidity and delicious mineral notes.
Pairing suggestion: This delicious Chardonnay is best paired with fish dishes in general, starters, vegetarian dishes or also as an aperitif.
3 bottles x Domaine de Biéville Chablis 2020 (Burgundy, France)
White | Chardonnay
Domaine de Biéville is located in the village of Viviers (8km away from Chablis), and was founded in 1970 by Jean-Jacques Moreau. The domaine boasts 45 hectares of vineyards, all in one piece, something that is quite unique in Burgundy. Jean-Jacques chose this specific location to plant such a big vineyard because of its extraordinary sun exposure South/South East, like some Premiers Crus and its altitude benefiting from a mild climat.
Golden in colour with tints of green. It is very fruity with hints of lemon and grapefruit, developing into softer fruits like apricot and pear. Quite round and ripe on the palate, with hints of pear and apple alongside the supple creaminess and mineral freshness you expect from this famous appellation.
Pairing suggestion: If ever a wine was designed to suit a roast chicken, this is surely it. A great friend of any poultry dish.
3 bottles x Paddy Borthwick Chardonnay 2020 (Wairarapa, New Zealand)
White | Chardonnay
Proudly family owned, the Borthwick vineyard is an established vineyard situated in Gladstone, the heart of the Wairarapa. Lifted fruit aromas of nectarines, apricots and pineapple have integrated with fermentation in oak to produce a wine of great texture. Extended yeast contact has leant itself to a creamy palate, with almond and toasted bread aromas. This wine shows depth of fruit and great palate weight that is enjoyable now or cellar for the next 6 years.
Pairing suggestion: A great wine to pair with seafood, roast chicken, soft, creamy cheeses or grilled fish.
