Calais Wine Superstore was created and is run by the previous Oddbins management. This store is increasingly popular, due to its emphasis on good value wines popular with British shoppers and frequent deals making a daytrip a worthwhile expedition. When visiting, look out for their good range of "3 wines for £6 offers".
They say; "We generally offer a £3 saving per bottle, sometimes even more! But on the whole all wines up to £4 retail in Calais are genuinely half price. This means our 3 for £6 wines and wines between £2 and £3 are less than half price."
– Calais Wine Superstore's new warehouse is close to Carrefour Supermarket (Mi-Voix) in Calais.
2013 - Best wine deals: Jacob's Creek Three Vines Rose £2 a bottle saving £6, Puro Chile Fairtrade Merlot £2 a bottle saving £5, Blossom Hill Signature Reserve Chardonnay and Merlot - buy 3 for £6 saving £3.50 per bottle on UK retail, Villa Maria Soave - £2 per bottle, saving you an astonishing £8 per bottle on UK retail!
Best bubbly: Bach Brut Cava and Cava Rose £2.99 a bottle saving £4.00, Prosecco Botter £3.99 a bottle saving £4.00.

December 2010 – We notice that Hardy's VR Merlot wine costs about £2.00 a bottle at The Calais Wine Superstore in Calais, whilst at Sainsbury's in London it's selling for £5.99. So, go to Calais to save £3.99 a bottle or 2/3 off U.K. prices (Buy three bottles and you only pay for two – offer). Save £144 when you buy three cases on U.K. prices. Buying 3l boxes also offers huge savings. For example, Stowells Chardonnay Pinot Grigio costs £15.70 at Sainsbury's and only £6.99 at Calais Wine. a saving of 55% on U.K. prices.
January 12th, 2011 – Checking prices again we saw that this wine was on offer at Sainsbury's and Tesco in England. As always with alcohol offers in British supermarkets, it is for a limited period. Even so, the £4.00 a bottle price at Sainsbury's (until 18th January) means that for a limited period this wine costs twice as much as in Calais, but will return to three times a much shortly.
