Gourmet Classic are REAL wines specially created for cooking. They are cheaper because we do not pay duty on them. They are of consistently high quality and are used by some of the top chefs in the country (see our endorsement by the Craft Guild of Chef's and others). Professional chefs can choose standard Dry, Red or White, or The Chef's Premier versions (single varietal cooking wines for premier dishes) - Cabernet Sauvignon or Chardonnay. Gourmet Classic products are also available to retail customers at supermarkets and other convenient outlets.To make home cooked dishes even tastier, ready made jus is available in red (beef) and white (chicken) flavours - a perfect complement to Gourmet Classic
