Weekend Chablis Promotion
Chablis is a dry white French wine renowned for the purity of its aroma and taste. The cool climate around Chablis produces wines with more acidity and flavours less fruity than Chardonnay wines grown in warmer climates. The wines often have a "flinty" note, sometimes described as "goût de pierre à fusil" ("tasting of ‘gunflint'), and sometimes as "steely" or possessing "minerality".

Like Chablis? Well this is your moment at Cases Wine Warehouse. Our February Sale is flying right now and we're focusing on Chablis this weekend. So check out the following deals until Sunday or while stocks last.

Le Chablisienne ‘Le Finage' Chablis AC 2009 - Not as bone-dry as some other Chablis, ‘La Finage' has sweet fruit with an underlying citrus freshness and the minerality so typical of this classic region. Gold Medal Winner, NOFFLA Wine Awards, 2010-2011. Sampler Bottle price reduced from €15.95 to €12.95.

Ropiteau Chablis AC 2009 - ‘Time was when Ropiteau was a synonym for dismal wine. Not any more. A bit of va-voom here, balanced ripe cooking apple, layers of fresh chalk, good bang for your buck.' Food & Wine Magazine, July 2010. Sampler Bottle price reduced from €16.95 to €13.95.

Domain George Chablis AC 2008 - Unmistakably Chablis; dry, clear, aromatic, lively and light, like no other style of Chardonnay. Domaine George keep smaller vines to limit production, and enhance the minerality provided by Chablis' unique terroir. Sampler Bottle price reduced from €18.95 to €14.95.


Ideal food matches for Chablis include chicken, fish (especially plaice, sea bass, grilled dover sole or trout with almonds), seafood (oysters! Or mussels, or scallops), avocado, grilled vegetables, creamy cheeses. Mmmmmm.
