subject: Five Great Mixed Wine Case Ideas [print this page] You will find there's wealth of mixed cases of wine available over the internet with many imaginative themes and combinations. If you havent investigated this concept before or indeed havent discovered how easy it really is to buy wine online nowadays. Ive had a look on the web for you and would like to share 5 great mixed cases by way of example.
Since we are approaching the festive season yet again a good starting point could well be with a festive oriented case. Aptly named The Selection Lunch, Adnams Cellar and Kitchen offer a case containing: One bottle of Fino pale sherry, One of Ruby Port , two bottles of 2008 Sparkling Rose, two bottles of dessert wine and three each of white burgundy and Rioja. All specially selected and providing everything needed to guide you through Christmas.
Adnams also offer several versions of their Buyers Choice cases which offer cross sections of as the name suggests, wines they have been buying after careful selection. These are typically built to give you an impression of the wines they've already found to be great quality and value and cover anything from 12 individual bottles to mixed reds, whites and mixtures of both.
If you are a fan of a particular type of wine you'll find again plenty to pick from. As an illustration: What about a vintage 2009 Beaujolais 6 bottle case which offers a selection of six different wines from differing appellations within Beaujolais. A true taste from the region and from one of the finest vintages in decades. In my quick search I additionally found cases of Rioja, Chardonnay and Burgundy.
For those who have a penchance for wines from a certain region or country you're well catered for as well. Taking one example arbitrarily I discovered a South African 12 bottle case. This mixed wine case is a joyful jumble of varieties and styles, from the easy-drinking Beach House White to the South African classic red, Pinotage. Specific region mixed cases are available from every wine producing country on the globe. I came across Chilean, Italian and New Zealand examples in the admittedly quick search I made.
Since we are limiting ourselves to just five examples here Id like to finish with single estate wine cases but before doing this Ill just point out that mixed cases of fortified wine, rose, Champagne and sparkling and fine wines are all readily available as well. Our final example case idea then will be the Cloudy Bay mixed 6 bottle cases. 2 bottles each of Cloudy bay Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and naturally Sauvignon blanc from that most revered of NZ winemakers. Mixed cases are of course available from a number of other single estates.
I really hope these five examples have whetted your appetite and that youll have a look at mixed cases of wine yourself and discover the many exciting possibilities to be located online. A terrific starting place and where I uncovered the suggestions above is at http://www.wineday.co.uk A fantastic online wine megastore which offers products from many of the uks top wine merchants saving you difficulties of working through multiple sites. Everything is well categorised and easy to browse and they also sell wine related gifts, accessories and experiences.
