Oz Clarke came to Boursot's Wine Collection

Oz Clarke came to Boursot's Wine Collection where he and Guy Boursot jointly tutored a tasting of nine wines to a group of journalists. While talking about Boursot's, he confirmed that your trip to France "is going to be so much more enjoyable if you go just a little bit further away from Calais and start talking to individual people" referring, of course, to your favourite wine shop here in Ardres. You can see his clip here.

Oz appeared to be enraptured by the pretty town of Ardres and specifically highlighted two of our wines. Click here to see a clip of his day's resumé and to find out what these wines were! At the end of the day, he summed up saying "That's a good day out!".

Special Offer for November

Whilst stocks are available, we are pleased to hold open our offer to you:

50cl bottles of the very popular Château de Sours Rosé, 2010 at a one-off price of 3,90€. Equating to 5,85€ (around £5 at today’s rate) per 75cl bottle, this makes a saving of an additional 1€ over our normal shop price (let alone the considerably higher UK bottle price of £9.99 “reduced on Special Offer” to £8.49 – ha, ha!). Total saving over the UK’s “special offer” price at one of the major retailers is £2.64 per bottle!

This half-litre size will produce 4 good glasses – ideal sometimes as a lunchtime or evening drink for two people when a bottle seems a little too much!

This is a bargain so as always it’s first come, first served...

As always with our Offers, you can reserve your requirements for collection at a later date. Please let us know what you’d like on ardres@boursot.co.uk and receipt of your order will be acknowledged.

As a Boursot’s Wine Collection customer you should take advantage of our special arrangement with SeaFrance whereby you can get a special day return crossing fare for just £25 for your car and all passengers Sundays to Fridays, or £29 on Saturdays.

In addition, SeaFrance is offering you a 36 hour return of £35 (£40 for Saturdays) as a Boursot customer.

These savings over SeaFrance’s normal prices are only available to you as a registered member of our database, and are not visible on our website. You can book at these special rates directly on this link. If you lose this link, you can also go to www.seafrance.com and in the Offer Code panel, enter the word Boursot.

In addition if you spend more than 600€ with us, we will be happy to reimburse your day return fare booked through SeaFrance, so please remember to bring along your receipt.

In case you didn’t know it already, we should also point out that Tesco clubcard points can be exchanged for Eurotunnel tickets.

Boursot’s Hotel Offer

As you may know, we have a list of local hotels, B&Bs, restaurants, golf clubs and places of interest on our website under the Local Info button from our Home Page - or directly here. We hope you will find this helpful. Whilst talking about Local Info, we also list the Bank Holidays so that you do not find, on getting here, that everything is closed (except Boursot’s Wine Collection of course which remains open every day except Sundays and Mondays).

It is probably true to say that about three or four years ago, the 4 star Hôtel Château Tilques between here and Saint-Omer, was overly crowded with partying Brits and the consequence of that was that the hotel’s quality and value seemed to slip.

Now, things are very different as those of you who have been to our Gourmet Evenings there can testify, and we have no hesitation in recommending the hotel and its restaurant. The food is great, the service is impeccable and the bedrooms are characterful, light and spacious. With its idyllic setting, and proximity to the bustling and pretty town of Saint-Omer with its historic cathedral, I can’t think of a much better combination for an easy and tranquil getaway for a night or two.

As a Boursot’s Wine Collection customer, through 2011 you will continue to receive reduced rates of 129€ per room Sundays to Fridays and 159€ for Saturday nights; these prices are per night for two people, including breakfast and are of course offered subject to availability. When booking, please mention Boursot to get your special rates.

Also between Monday and Friday, if you’d like to eat in the Brasserie du Parc, Château Tilques’ attractive conservatory, you will be offered a free kir – again, provided that you mention Boursot’s Wine Collection!

We are a small company and need all the help we can get, so if you feel that these offers could be of interest to any of your friends or colleagues who might be planning a wedding or large party, do please help them, and us, by passing on our details.
