This selection forms the basis of what is available for delivery to your door in the UK. Alternatively you can go to our ecommerce site www.boursot.com where you can look at, order and pay for your wines. Because the wines are to be delivered, their prices are different to our shop collected prices because each bottle must be repackaged for safe transport and there is also a contribution towards the very high cost of delivery. The calculation is made automatically when you check out.

If you should like advice on either the wines or how to order, please do call us on +33 321 36 81 46 and we will be delighted to help however we can.

There is neither a minimum nor a maximum quantity when sending wines into the UK.

Do please remember that since 1 January 2021 there are new UK government taxes and charges for imports into the UK.

UK duty as well as VAT on that duty, and VAT on the wine value of your consignment, will now be requested by the courier company at the time of delivery, together with a charge for collecting tax on behalf of the UK government. However in France we will not charge you the French VAT on the wine value so at least that part will be taken care of by us.

Even after all these new complications and costs, there are still savings to be had by buying your quality French wines from us. The best savings of course can be achieved by coming to Ardres and taking away what you like: there should be no supplementary charges when taking any quantity of wines back into the UK, when travelling via the tunnel.

We look forward to providing you with our great wines.

With my best wishes

This selection forms the basis of what is in stock most of the time. These are all good quality wines and spirits that offer excellent value - especially when compared with their prices charged in the UK.

If you have registered for Skiptax or Zapptax and downloaded their app, you can take advantage of the 20% reclaim of French VAT if you are taking the wine back into the UK. We will make out your invoice to you c/o the provider and then you scan the invoice on to the app and take your phone to the Tax Free zone at your exit terminal and within days your bank account will be credited with the tax amount less the providerÕs commission.

You probably know some of the choices already, but we will of course be happy to explain individual styles - and of course you can taste many of them when you are able to travel again. We have no minimum (or maximum!) order requirement and you can mix your bottles and cases as much as you like.

You can also have your favourite wines sent directly to our premises from the vineyards, so that you can simply hop across to collect these cases, taking advantage of low French prices and you do not pay any UK duty if the wines are for your personal consumption and within current UK limits. Please call or e-mail for further details.

It is always helpful if you can place your order before you arrive. In that way, we can ensure that your order is pulled out of stock and is ready for your arrival.

The attractive town of Ardres is easily accessible, being just 15 minutes from both the tunnel and Calais. See Map.

The Ardres shop is open Monday - Saturday 10.00 - 6.00 with no closure for lunch

If you are likely to be here outside these hours, please contact us in advance and we shall be happy to open up - always assuming one of us is available.

Being in France, we charge in euros so the sterling price shown here is simply an approximate guide and is obviously dependant upon the exchange rate offered by your bank. We accept Mastercard and Visa, or cash in euros. We also accept payments by bank transfer : please ask and we will send you our bank account details.

We are here to help you and we look forward to seeing you soon.

With my best wishes

  BOTTLE Qty:
Les Hauts d’Artigny, Chenin Sec, Levures Indigènes, Touraine Amboise, Domaine Plou et Fils (Loire), 2024
Chenin made with indigenous yeasts is really interesting. It is unique: fresh, light but dry and it’s possibly best served with lighter foods such as fish or chicken. Also especially good with soft cheeses.

8.90€   £7.40

  BOTTLE Qty:
Saint-Bris, Sauvignon, Bailly-Lapierre (Burgundy), 2023
This is the only Sauvignon allowed in the Burgundy area and this specific example has a lovely complexity with the minerality of a good Chablis whilst having the freshness of the Sauvignon.

9.30€   £7.80

  BOTTLE Qty:
Gewürztraminer, Bastide des Songes (Languedoc), 2023
A new discovery from Canet just to the west of Montpellier, this is a lovely domaine that produces wines that are typical of their grape varieties. Being a warm area, the wines have a richness of fruit. This particular wine has all the floral, lychee-style that you should expect from good Gewürztraminer. A dry wine that should be served nicely chilled. Refreshing.

9.40€   £7.80

  BOTTLE Qty:
Bourgogne Aligoté, Buissonnier (Burgundy), 2023
Aligoté is the "other" grape of Burgundy and produces a wine with more freshness than that produced from the Chardonnay. It is very dry. This is produced in the Chablis area and is an excellent example at a very reasonable price.

  BOTTLE Qty:

Muscat de Rivesaltes, Château de Corneilla, Vin Doux Naturel, 2024

10.50€   £8.80

  BOTTLE Qty:
Bourgogne Aligoté, Vignerons de Mancey (Burgundy), 2023
The Aligoté is the alternative grape of Burgundy, producing a light dry wine that is drier than a Chardonnay. This Aligoté is grown and made in the southerly Mâcon region, close to Tournus. A good easy drinking wine.

10.60€   £8.80

  BOTTLE Qty:
Comte Leloup du Château de Chasseloir, Cuvée des Ceps Centenaires, Muscadet de Sèvre et Maine, Sur Lie (Loire), 2019
At Château de Chasseloir there are five hectares of vines that are more than 100 years old. These grapes are picked by hand, and the wine has its lees stirred in tank for 9 to 10 months and finally it is aged for at least two years in bottle so as to create this very special cuvée. Dry but with body and complexity: fab!.

10.90€   £9.10

  BOTTLE Qty:
Chenin Blanc Sur Lie, Noble Hill Estate (Simonsberg-Paarl, SA), 2022
A really delicious organic Chenin that has been aged on its lees (sur lie) to give it more texture and flavour. Easy to enjoy by itself or with light foods. It even has enough freshness to cut through spicily flavoured foods.

11.70€   £9.80

(ORGANIC)

  BOTTLE Qty:
Sauvignon Blanc, Vondeling Wines (Paarl, SA), 2023
With an aroma that is almost reminiscent of grapefruit, this wine is fresh, soft and fruity. So easy to enjoy by itself before or even alongside a light meal. This wine shows off all that is so good about SA Sauvignon.

11.90€   £9.90

  BOTTLE Qty:
Bourgogne Chardonnay, Vignerons de Mancey (Burgundy), 2022

12.20€   £10.20

  BOTTLE Qty:
Lirac Blanc, La Fermade, Domaine Maby (Rhône), 2024
Made predominantly from Grenache Blanc with Clairette, Picpoul and Viognier, the juice is cold fermented to retain freshness. It has light, floral aromas, with more softness and fullness in the mouth and finishes with a little spiciness – a lovely marriage of flavours that makes it so good to accompany various lighter foods. This wine is regularly applauded by the wine guides and critics.

14.20€   £11.80

(ORGANIC)

  BOTTLE Qty:
Mâcon-Azé, Domaine de la Garenne (Burgundy), 2022
Probably the best domaine in the village of Azé.  Fresh and dry but with great Chardonnay fruit.  Top quality and even better with a little bottle age.  Should you be curious, "une garenne" is a type of rabbit!

14.40€   £12.00

  BOTTLE Qty:
Mâcon-Solutré-Pouilly, Domaine Pascal Renaud (Burgundy), 2024
The village of Solutré on top of its eponymous rock generally produces a more minerally style of white Mâcon and this is probably the best in its class. We recommend this highly – the wine is easy to appreciate with its lighter texture yet full grapey flavour. Mouth wateringly delicious wine.

14.40€   £12.00

  BOTTLE Qty:
Saint-Bris, La Préferée, Domaine Clotilde Davenne (Burgundy), 2023
The village of Saint-Bris produces the only Sauvignon in all of the Burgundy region:  an area normally reserved for Chardonnay and Aligoté.  This particular wine is taken specifically from Madame Davenne's Rosiers and Becassine vineyards in Loigny.  Made from 100 year old vines that give concentration of flavour and that express all the minerality of the Kimmeridgian terroir.  If you thought you already knew the best Sauvignon Saint-Bris on the market, think again and try this!

14.50€   £12.10

  BOTTLE Qty:
Montagny, Vignerons de Buxy (Burgundy), 2023
Montagny is one of the four main wine producing villages in the Côte Chalonnaise and produces lighter styles of dry white wine from the Chardonnay grape. Buxy produces the majority of all Montagny and this particular wine is full of dry flavour and is of excellent quality. Good for your special entertaining.

14.90€   £12.40

  BOTTLE Qty:
Petit Chablis, Domaine Maurice Lecestre, 2024
This is good stuff. Petit Chablis is a lesser Chablis – still good with the character of its famous parent but with less concentration of the minerality. From a small domaine in close by Fontenay, this is a great introduction to Chablis.

14.90€   £12.40

  BOTTLE Qty:
Estate Reserve White, Noble Hill Estate (Simonsberg-Paarl, SA), 2022
One of the first certified organic wineries in South Africa. Crafted by the passionate winemaker Kris Tillery. A well balanced white Rhône-like blend with fruity aromas backed up with a mineral backbone. The length on the palate is fabulous and it is suggested this wine could go well with fresh oysters!

15.90€   £13.20

(ORGANIC)

  BOTTLE Qty:
Gewürztraminer, Tradition, Robert Faller et Fils (Alsace), 2023
A good example of a classic Gewürztraminer: fragrant but dry with an aroma reminiscent of lychees. Delicious, refreshing and different – the perfect partner to most first courses and it even goes well with spicy food! Regularly described by you as one of the best Gewürztraminers. There is currently a shortage of Gewürztraminer from recent harvests.

16.30€   £13.60

  BOTTLE Qty:
Barrel Selection Chardonnay, Vondeling (Voor-Paardeberg, SA), 2023
From a tiny tree-lined vineyard in the upper valley of the Vondeling fam, these grapes can ripen slowly in this cooler elevated protected area. Only the best barrels are selected for this elegant new world Chardonnay by the head winemaker Matt Copeland. A beautiful Chardonnay – elegant buttery oat oaky tones without being overly oaked.

16.90€   £14.10

  BOTTLE Qty:
Château de Varennes, Savennières (Loire), 2022
A bone dry wine made from 100% Chenin Blanc that could age over the next 10 years with no problem, to become fuller and softer in style.

16.90€   £14.10

  BOTTLE Qty:
Pinot Gris, Cuvée Bénédicte, Robert Faller et Fils (Alsace), 2022
This grape used to be known as the Tokay of Alsace, more recently as the Tokay Pinot Gris and now the Pinot Gris. Faller makes some lovely refreshing wines. Here, a powerfully grapey, almost sweet smelling, aroma precedes a dry flavour, creating an alluring paradox. This will marry perfectly with exotic food or even, foie gras.

16.90€   £14.10

  BOTTLE Qty:
Montagny, Premier Cru, Montcuchot, Vignerons de Buxy (Burgundy), 2022
Montagny is one of the four main wine producing villages in the Côte Chalonnaise and produces lighter styles of dry white wine from the Chardonnay grape. Buxy produces the majority of all Montagny and this particular Premier Cru is full of dry flavour and is of excellent quality. Good for your special entertaining.

17.30€   £14.40

  BOTTLE Qty:
Pouilly Fumé, Le Coteau, Domaine Roger Pabiot (Loire), 2023
This is from 100% Sauvignon grown on chalk, sand and clay soils from the village of Tracy-sur-Loire - and has been awarded several medals.  Dry, light and fresh fruit with a hint of spiciness. This is an immediately fruity and impressive wine and it will be good for at least three more years.

17.50€   £14.60

  BOTTLE Qty:
Petit Chablis, Domaine Clotilde Davenne, 2023
This excellent Petit Chablis has a fruity, floral yet minerally aroma.  The rising star Clotilde Davenne has created on the palate a lovely balance of crispness with the finesse of Chardonnay fruit.  Perfect to enjoy either by itself or with light styles of food.  Harmony in a glass!

17.60€   £14.70

  BOTTLE Qty:
Saint-Véran, Champs de Perdrix, Domaine Pascal Renaud (Burgundy), 2024
One of the best Saint-Véran wines we believe you will taste. Champs de Perdrix is the name of the tiny high altitude lieu-dit or parcel of 40 year old vines on limestone-clay. This has a richness of fruit but it also has potential to age for another seven years. This proves why the wines of the Côte Mâconnaise are now receiving wider recognition. This Saint-Véran is extra-ordinary.

18.80€   £15.70

  BOTTLE Qty:
Babiana (Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc, Viognier, Grenache Blanc), Vondeling Wines (Paarl, SA), 2022
Made predominantly from old Chenin Blanc vines giving a concentration of dry fruit, with the other grape varieties added to give aromatics to the blend. All is barrel fermented and kept on the lees for 12 months to add complexity. The result is astonishing with layers of flavours whilst remaining elegant. A masterpiece that has won many awards.

18.90€   £15.80

  BOTTLE Qty:
Lirac Blanc, Casta Diva, Domaine Maby (Rhône), 2023
This wine has probably been awarded every top medal there is to be won in any competition that it is entered for. A beautiful Lirac made from 68% Clairette and 32% Viognier and fermented in new oak casks. It is fresh yet it has lovely spicy fruit and oak flavours. The owner of the domaine, Richard Maby, is fanatical about opera (as you might have imagined!).

20.40€   £17.00

  BOTTLE Qty:
Le Trianon de Ch. Filhot, Sauternes (Bordeaux), 2017
As the second wine of the great Chateau Filhot, this wine offers excellent value. Made from Sauvignon, Sémillon and Muscadelle, this has a honeyed sweet fruit texture but still retains freshness and is not cloying. Great wine!

21.30€   £17.80

  BOTTLE Qty:
Mercurey Blanc, Château de Chamirey (Burgundy), 2023
Arguably the trailblazer in Mercurey, this château is owned by the well-respected Devillard family.  White wine in Mercurey is in a minority but with some chalk in the soil here, this wine rivals many of the better known names around Beaune.  This is lovely – a refreshing soft dry Chardonnay backed with a little oak.

28.40€   £23.70

  IN WOODEN (6) CASE Qty:
Pouilly-Fuissé, Premier Cru, Aux Bouthières, Domaine Pascal Renaud (Burgundy), 2022
This wine is made from 100 year old vines in Aux Bouthières which is one of the best vine plots in Fuissé. The soil in this two hectare vineyard gives an opulence of fruit combined with a minerality. Fermentation is in demi-muid large barrels and the juice is left on the lees for 18 months. This superb wine is now legally entitled to class itself Premier Cru. This is simply magnificent Burgundy and, whilst fabulous now, it will get even better over the next 10-20 years. It will probably be the finest Pouilly-Fuissé you have ever tasted!

28.80€   £24.00

  BOTTLE Qty:
Montmains, Premier Cru, Domaine Clotilde Davenne, 2023
This tastes simply excellent.  Montmains is possibly the most famous of the Premier Cru vineyards on the Kimmeridgian limestone of Chablis.   The wine combines freshness, fruit and minerality and our rising star Clotilde Davenne has created a beautifully balanced masterpiece here, that will continue to develop over several more years.  

37.90€   £31.60

  BOTTLE Qty:
Gewürztraminer, Vendanges Tardives,Robert Faller et Fils (Alsace), 2022
Aromatic, sweet lusciously flavoured and even, with the taste of “noble rot”, this is not heavy but is a delight to savour at the end of your special meal. As with most decent quality sweet wines, if there should be any left in the bottle, put it back in the fridge and it will keep for several days – often weeks.

42.40€   £35.30

  BOTTLE Qty:
Hermitage Blanc, Les Diognières (Rhône), 2021
From 60 year old vines, this is a magnificent Marsanne. Powerful but yet delicate and fresh. A fine wijne that will keep for 10 years – at least.

60.90€   £50.80

RED WINES

  BOTTLE Qty:
Côtes du Rhône Rouge (Rhône)
A lighter style of fruity red wine from the Côtes du Rhône that is made predominantly from soft and slightly spicy Grenache. An honest inexpensive red from the co-operative in Saint-Priést that has a gentle fruity flavour and is really easy to enjoy. Good quality and well-priced.

5.00€   £4.20

  BOTTLE Qty:
Le Petit Pont, Réserve, Rouge, Vin de Pays d'Oc, 2023
This extra-ordinarily delicious wine is made from Grenache, Cinsault and Cabernet Sauvignon.

  BOTTLE Qty:
Merlot, Signature, Vignerons Florensac (Languedoc), 2023

6.90€   £5.80

  BOTTLE Qty:
Château de Corneilla, Héritage (Côtes du Roussillon), 2023
A warm, rich and spicy wine made from an exotic blend of Grenache, Syrah and “old” Carignan. This wine has been aged in oak so as to develop complex aromas and a softness on the palate, with a very long “finish”. It is full of fruity flavours. This is the best of its type and offers amazing quality and value. If you like La Bette, you will love this!

7.90€   £6.60

  HALF BOTTLE Qty:
  BOTTLE Qty:
Château de Fontenille, Rouge Passion, Grand Bordeaux (Bordeaux), 2021
A fuller style of red Bordeaux produced in the Entre Deux Mers region, which disallows red wines to be classified any higher than straight Bordeaux. It’s 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and is a really good quality claret of fantastic value! A star

4.90€   £4.10
8.40€   £7.00

  BOTTLE Qty:
Baroques, Coteaux du Pont de Gard, Domaine Maby (Rhône), 2023
We are always struck on tasting this ruby red wine just how much succulent juicy mid-weight fruit there is. From the southern Rhône area but without its appellation. Made from Cinsault and Syrah, but unoaked so as to show off all its lively juiciness. We hope you will like this red as much as we do!

8.90€   £7.40

(ORGANIC)

  BOTTLE Qty:
Les Micocouliers, Château Massamier la Mignarde (Minervois), 2023
This domaine has received numerous accolades including Best Wine of the World in International Wine Challenge’s category Syrah-Grenache-Mourvèdre! Now served at the Elysée Palace, the Senate and 100 of France’s starred restaurants.

9.20€   £7.70

  BOTTLE Qty:
Pinot Noir, Bastide des Songes (Languedoc), 2023
This ruby coloured Pinot wine has a gentle mid-weight style and is full of soft fruit, making it easy to enjoy now and over the next 18 months. The wine could be kept to advantage for another 18 months. Great value for such a decent Pinot Noir.

9.40€   £7.80

  BOTTLE Qty:
Nielluccio, Bastide des Songes (Languedoc), 2023
Nielluccio is otherwise known as Sangiovese in Tuscany, where it makes Chianti! This has that lovely dry fruit flavour and is mid-weight with a long aftertaste. The wine could be kept to advantage for another 18 months. From the warm climate close to Pouzols in the Languedoc, this is a bit different.

9.60€   £8.00

  BOTTLE Qty:
Malbec, Bastide des Songes (Languedoc), 2023
This is a “great” wine made from Malbec in the warmth of the south. The wine is full and rich in flavour whilst not being heavy. It’s a wine that could last for a couple of years but it can certainly be enjoyed now with richer foods.

  BOTTLE Qty:
Fleurie, Cœur de Granit, Château de Chénas (Beaujolais), 2023
We have so often been disappointed with the wines coming out of the village of Fleurie. but at last we have found a delicious fruity mid-weight wine that is not overly priced and is worthy of listing. This is a good honest Cru Beaujolais at a sensible price.

10.80€   £9.00

  BOTTLE Qty:
Château des Landes, Cuvée Prestige, Lussac Saint-Emilion (Bordeaux), 2020

Saumur Champigny, Terroir de Craie, Domaine la Perruche (Loire), 2023
A richer rounder wine made from three plots of Cabernet Franc in the middle region of the Loire. It has a typically soft fruit dryness on its finish.  Full of fruit, this offers excellent value for a wine of such quality.

  BOTTLE Qty:
Merlot, GlenWood (Franschhoek), 2023

  BOTTLE Qty:
Bourgogne Pinot Noir, Côte Chalonnaise, Buissonnier, Vignerons de Buxy (Burgundy), 2023
A Pinot Noir of excellent value, being from the newer Bourgogne Côte Chalonnaise appellation in southern Burgundy. Owing to the warm nature of 2020, this wine has body and plenty of the Pinot character that is so typical of this southern area of Burgundy. Whilst good to enjoy now, it also has the potential to mature.

11.80€   £9.80

  BOTTLE Qty:
Pinot Noir, Pigcasso (Franschhoek Western Cape, SA), 2021
A wine made and named after an artist is not a new thing in the wine world but when that artist is a pig that was rescued and began to paint, that is something exceptional. Sadly, the pig has recently died but her art and the wines inspired by her remain! A true renaissance for South African Pinot Noir. Great new world mid-weight Pinot Noir to drink slightly chilled on a sunny summer’s day.

11.90€   £9.90

  BOTTLE Qty:
Vigneron’s Selection Shiraz, GlenWood Vineyards (Franschhoek, SA), 2022

  BOTTLE Qty:
Le Petit Roy, Domaine Jean Royer (Rhône), 23ème Année
This “table wine” is made by one of the top producers of Châteauneuf du Pape, Domaine Jean Royer from the same grapes and the same techniques but outside any appellation. This gorgeous wine can be enjoyed now or kept happily for 2 years, perhaps more. As a Vin de Table, the wine is not entitled to quote a year on its label, although Royer has a coding of “23ème année” meaning that this wine is from 2023. Its title belies its provenance – this is a very impressive and delicious wine.

After several years of intense work of reforming the various plots, planting new vines and building a winery rewarded Martine in 2003 with the promotion of her wines to the status of Cru Bourgeois Supérieur. Her 35 hectares of vines are planted between two Grand Cru Classés (La Lagune 3rd growth and Cantemerle 5th growth). 25 hectares of sand and pebble soil and 10 hectares of ancient Garonne gravel and clay. The wine is full and rich but has an underlying softness – it seems to win a prize in each competition it is entered for.

Amandelboord Pinotage, De Grendel (Durbanville, SA), 2022
A softer style of Pinotage, which is a blend of Pinot Noir (juicy) and Cinsault (powerful) that is great to enjoy by itself but would be even better served with red meats or rich cheeses. Full of fruit but with delicate aromas, this is a great introduction to this famous South African grape.

  BOTTLE Qty:
Esprit de Gloria, Saint-Julien (Bordeaux), 2020
Château Gloria in the commune of Saint-Julien is not a Cru Classé simply because it was established in 1942, long after the 1855 classification. Over the years parcels of land have been acquired from neighbours such as Ducru and Léovilles Barton and Lascases.  This property is at the top of its game now and produces great quality wine.  Good wine for a great dinner.

  BOTTLE Qty:
Bowwood Pinotage, Vondeling Estate (Voor Paardeberg, SA), 2020

This amazing champagne is made by a small Premier Cru and Grand Cru grower in the prime village of Dizy just outside Epernay. It’s made from equal percentages of Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay, with 50% reserve (older) wine and then aged for a minimum of 18 months, giving soft fruity but toasty flavours. This is a superb find: good quality, sensibly priced with a smart label, reminiscent of Bollinger RD.
