The French Discovery Case (6 bottles)

A six-bottle mixed wine case created for curious drinkers who love French wine, but want to look beyond the most famous names and appellations.

Bordeaux, Burgundy and Champagne will always have their place. They are classics for a reason. But in a time when wine prices continue to rise, some of the smartest buying in France is happening in less obvious regions, where quality is high, character is strong and prices can still feel refreshingly sensible.

This mixed case brings together six French wines from regions and styles that deserve more attention: traditional-method sparkling from Burgundy, alpine freshness from Savoie, Mediterranean brightness from Picpoul de Pinet, the distinctive reds of Fronton, Pinot Noir from Franche-Comté and a serious Bandol Rouge from Provence.

It is a case designed for discovery, but not for obscurity. These are wines with real drinking pleasure, clear regional identity and plenty of food-pairing potential.

Inside the case, you will find:

Oedoria Diamant Crémant de Bourgogne Diamant NV
A traditional-method French sparkling wine from Burgundy, offering a smart alternative to Champagne for anyone looking for quality fizz without the famous-name price tag. Fresh, elegant and versatile, it is ideal as an aperitif or with lighter starters.

Domaine Jean Perrier et Fils Savoie Abymes
A crisp alpine white made from Jacquère, one of Savoie’s signature grape varieties. Light, fresh and mineral, this is the kind of wine that reminds you why mountain whites are becoming increasingly popular with food lovers.

Château de la Mirande Picpoul de Pinet
A bright, coastal southern French white from the Languedoc, known for its zesty acidity and seafood-friendly style. Picpoul de Pinet is one of the great value white wine appellations of France, especially for those who enjoy clean, refreshing wines.

Château Le Roc Fronton
Fronton is one of the South West’s most interesting red wine appellations, and a brilliant place to look for characterful French reds beyond the usual names. This wine shows the region’s distinctive savoury, peppery and red-fruited personality.

Vignoble Guillaume Pinot Noir
A Pinot Noir from Franche-Comté, just outside Burgundy, offering a clever alternative for anyone who loves elegant, lighter-bodied reds but does not love Burgundy prices. Fresh, expressive and finely balanced.

Moulin de la Roque Le Castellet Bandol Rouge
Provence is famous for rosé, but its reds are often where some of the real hidden treasures can be found. Bandol Rouge, led by Mourvèdre, offers depth, structure and Mediterranean warmth, with the seriousness to partner richer dishes beautifully.

Together, these six bottles show a different side of France: less predictable, more adventurous and full of value for drinkers who are willing to explore.

This is not a “cheap French wine case”. It is a smarter French wine case, built around regions where quality, authenticity and value still meet in the glass.

Perfect for anyone who wants to discover French wines beyond Bordeaux, Burgundy and Champagne, or for those looking for a thoughtful mixed case with whites, reds and sparkling wine for different meals and occasions.
