Details
Chilean Chardonnay is a masterpiece when in the right hands, and this bottle is definitely in the right hands. This is a nice balance of fruit and oak with a pineapple and peachy start which develops into some spicy notes with a touch of hazelnut and vanilla finishing with some ripe melon.

Les Grands Chais is a company that is based in France although they have arms that spread across the modern world with wineries in operation in Australia, New Zealand, Chile and Argentina as well as mainland Europe. Their approach is to source exceptional fruit and make modern styles of wines that will be well received. The Good Pair Days wine team were impressed with their Chilean brands, Casa Bollén and Viña Las Niñas as well as the sparkling wines from Baron D’Arignac. On first visiting Les Grands Chais, apart from being overawed with the amount of wines at our fingertips, the team found the wines to be made with a strong focus on quality and showcasing regionality in each bottle. They each have their own story to tell and whether you are a fan of classical styles or discovering something new, they have you covered. We are excited to bring these wines to Australian shores for the first time.

Pairing guide
We love this beautifully racy Chardonnay by Casa Bollen, which manages to be a little on the decadent side while still maintaining all those lovely crisp and refreshing qualities that are the marker of a top-notch contemporary Chardonnay. This wine is going to love being paired with richer seafood dishes, ingredients like belly pork or pork loin, chicken salads, creamy pasta sauces, and chunkier white fish. Avocado and on-trend roast cauliflower dishes will also hit the spot, as will smoked salmon creations and Italian favourites like spaghetti vongole.

Casablanca may be a newcomer on the wine scene, but it's already making waves with its premium vintages. These wines are famous for their crisp acidity and juicy fruit flavours, making them the perfect addition to any summer party or seafood feast. So why not add a bottle of Casablanca to your wine collection and discover why this region is quickly becoming a must-visit for all wine enthusiasts? Sauvignon Blanc from Casablanca is also a great alternative to Marlborough Savvy B! Cheers!
