The Mineral Wine Case – 6 Bottles

Minerality is one of the most fascinating ideas in wine. It is also one of the most misunderstood. This mixed case brings the concept to life through six carefully chosen bottles that show freshness, texture, salinity, chalky tension and savoury elegance in different ways.

The Mineral Wine Case has been created to accompany our blog article “What does mineral mean in wine? A simple guide to minerality”, offering a practical, delicious way to taste the styles discussed in the piece.

Rather than focusing only on white wines, this case explores mineral character across sparkling, white, rosé and red wines. Expect crisp acidity, dry finishes, stony textures, saline freshness and food-friendly precision.

Inside the case you will find:

Arrels Montau de Sadurni Brut Nature Reserva
A dry, traditional-method sparkling wine from Penedès, made in a crisp Brut Nature style. Fresh, clean and finely textured, with a savoury mineral finish that makes it a brilliant aperitif.

Domaine Michaut Frères Chablis
A classic expression of mineral Chardonnay from Chablis. Steely, citrus-led and precise, with the kind of flinty, chalky freshness that makes Chablis one of the great reference points for mineral white wine.

Domaine Lyrarakis Assyrtiko
Assyrtiko is one of the best grape varieties for showing saline, Mediterranean minerality. This Cretan example is bright, dry and refreshing, with citrus fruit, chalky texture and a mouth-watering finish.

Bodega Hika Txakoli Rosé
A vibrant Basque rosé with Atlantic freshness, lively acidity and a subtle saline edge. This is rosé with real energy and structure, far removed from soft, fruit-only styles.

Te Pā Reserve Westhaven Pinot Noir
A refined Marlborough Pinot Noir showing red fruit, gentle spice and fine chalky tannins. A great example of how mineral character can appear in red wine through texture, freshness and savoury detail.

Felsina Berardenga Chianti Colli Senesi
A classic Italian red from Tuscany, built around Sangiovese’s natural acidity, savoury red fruit and stony mineral notes. Food-friendly, elegant and refreshingly honest.

The Mineral Wine Case is ideal for curious wine lovers who enjoy crisp, precise and food-friendly wines. It is also a brilliant way to explore the difference between fruity, aromatic wines and those shaped more by freshness, texture and savoury depth.

Perfect with seafood, goat’s cheese, grilled vegetables, roast chicken, lighter pasta dishes, antipasti, charcuterie and simple seasonal cooking.

A thoughtful mixed case for anyone who has ever wondered what “mineral” really means in wine, and would rather taste the answer than just read about it.
