The Best Wine Bundles for Summer Hosting and Game Season — Straight from the Estate

A key component of the art of successful entertaining is wine. Not only what you open, but how effortlessly everything fits together. Have you taken everyone into account? Is there something for the white lover, the red drinker, or the person who constantly wants bubbles? Have you made enough purchases?

Chateau des Charmes has simplified that section. Whether you're planning a long weekend get-together, a summer patio dinner, or FIFA watch party, chateaudescharmes.com has a carefully curated bundle for every occasion. The estate-grown wines of St. Davids' Bench are beautifully arranged and delivered to your door anywhere in Ontario. Orders over $200 qualify for free delivery. Compared to buying individual wines, this is a great deal.

Here’s the full lineup, and which bundle belongs at which table.

For Summer Hosting: The Bundles Built for Your Best Evenings

Entertainment in the summer is another matter entirely. The table is outside. The list of guests is more flexible. Each time, someone shows up with a guest. You want wines that look great on the table, are pleasurable for everyone, and don't require a ten-minute explanation. These are the wines.

🍷 Match Night Duo — $49.00 (Regular $54.90)

Two perfectly matched estate bottles at a price that makes grabbing two sets for a dinner party an easy decision — the Eclat Rose, a vivid 100% Gamay Noir sparkling bursting with strawberry and raspberry that gets the evening started, and the Cabernet Merlot Old Vines, a rich, full-bodied red from St. Davids’ Bench with dark fruit, warm spice, and a smooth layered finish that keeps it going. From the welcome toast until the final pour of the evening, they work together to cover the entire table.

Best for: A dinner for two, a patio evening with close friends, or a host gift that actually gets opened on arrival.

🍾 Kickoff Bundle — $55.00 (Regular $62.85)

Three different styles. One bundle. The World Cup Kickoff Bundle, a cool trio of popular estate wines ideal for watch parties, pre-game festivities, and supporting your side from the first whistle to the last drink, is designed for the first match day.

The Off-Dry Riesling is approachable, simple to drink, and a natural crowd-pleaser for a mixed company. It begins with vibrant peach, apricot, and a hint of sweetness balanced by crisp acidity. Because every opening match deserves a proper toast, the Eclat Bubbles, a Methode Traditionnelle sparkling from St. Davids’ Bench, brings the party with exquisite persistent bubbles, toasted brioche, and a crisp, elegant finish. The Estate Gamay Noir completes the picture. It is a medium-bodied red with gentle tannins, fresh plum, and cherry that goes well with everything on the game-night table.

Best for: A summer get-together of four to six people, opening match day, watch parties, or anyone looking for a ready-made entertaining option that covers reds, whites, and sparkling in one order.

🏆 Host The Game Bundle — $112.00 (Regular $132.70)

This one was designed for the host who does it right, and the World Cup Bundle delivers. From the first kickoff to the last whistle, six estate bottles representing the entire spectrum of styles were chosen to satisfy every palate in the audience. It's a wise purchase when you're entertaining a group of people that value both the game and the wine, as it saves over $20 off the standard price.

The Eclat Rose is the ideal welcome pour as guests arrive, opening the evening with vivid pink bubbles and juicy strawberry fruit. One of Burgundy's oldest types, the Estate Aligote e is crisp, mineral, and delightfully dry, with vibrant citrus that perfectly cuts through game-day munchies. Rich, complex, and elegant, with stone fruit and a creamy finish, the Chardonnay Sur Lie adds dimension to the white portfolio and merits a great charcuterie spread. Moving on to the reds, the crowd-pleaser is the Gamay Nouveau, which is light, juicy, and designed to be easily consumed. It has fresh cherry and raspberry that vanish more quickly than anticipated.

For the wine enthusiasts in the room, the Estate Pinot Noir steps up. It is smooth, elegant, and expressive, with earthy richness and red berries that call for a slower sip. The Cabernet Merlot Cellar Series , which has black fruit, gentle tannins, and a silky finish that goes well with everything festive on the table, completes the list with structure and warmth.

Best for: large gatherings, multi-course game-day feasts, World Cup watch parties, or any host who wants the entire range covered without having to make a second trip to the supermarket.

For Game Season: Stock Up Before the Season Starts

Game season simply shows up; it doesn't announce itself. All of a sudden, the group chat is busy, the calendar is packed, and someone has already reserved the finest seat. What's already in the house typically makes the difference between a good and a spectacular gaming night. You only have to worry about the outcome if you have the appropriate wines supplied before the event begins.

🏅 Champions Pack — $120.00 (Regular $141.80)

Raise a glass to the champions of the beautiful game. With four premium estate bottles that are inspired by the thrill, emotion, and memorable moments of the competition, the World Cup Champions Pack offers the complete commitment. Each bottle is discounted by more than $21. This combo delivers from kickoff to the last whistle, whether you're throwing a watch party, raising a glass to a championship win, or just enjoying every game in style.

The tone is established by the Brut Sparkling, a Methode Traditionnelle sparkling with toasted brioche, fine persistent bubbles, and a creamy, smooth finish that has been matured on lees for at least 18 months. The bottle that transforms a wonderful occasion into a fitting celebration. Grown at St. Davids’ Bench, the Savagnin  is one of the world's oldest grape varieties. It offers a unique, complex white with nutty depth and a lengthy, captivating finish, making it the wine that steals the show.

The  Gamay Noir Droit  a more somber version of Gamay with concentrated red fruit, hard tannins, and a flavor that can compete with anything on a game-night table, strides in with structure and accuracy. And the  Cabernet Franc, with its powerful, spicy, long-lasting flavors of raspberry, pipe tobacco, and a lingering finish that makes the last whistle feel like the perfect time to open it, concludes the pack with authority.

Best for: Playoffs, championship watch parties, big game get-togethers, or any event that calls for the best lineup on the counter
