Domaine La Grange Rouge products, discounts, deals and sales
All the appeal of the warm south, and the ripe raspberry character you look forward to in good Grenache. A useful quaffer for any time of the year.
Grange Rouge's unique volcanic soils were formed one million years ago off the Med coast (near what's now Agde), when a geyser spurted ash and lava 1km into the air. The Phoenicians and Romans made wine here; Pierre Bésinet (whose ancestors arrived in 1790) now cultivates 14 varieties using 'green' methods. Bouillabaisse wine.

Dutchman Pierre Degroote has been one of the great pioneers of developing the potential drinkable wines from the south of France. Nowadays he spends more time in north Africa developing the fledgling wine industry there but still has time for projects like this substantial Pinot Noir. This wine has a notable backbone from 50% of the crop having been aged in new oak barrels. Draw the cork and allow the wine to breathe for an hour to get the best from this uniquly southern Pinot.
Meursault 'Clos de la Barre' 2001 Domaine des Comtes Lafon
Perfect with game. Guy Sarrazin's house, in southern Burgundy's Jambles, is hard to miss. It's pink - a beacon to wandering Suffolk wine merchants. We homed in 10 years ago, 300 years after the Sarrazins set up shop in verdant hillsides south of Givry. Guy's style arises from seriously restricted yields, resulting in pure, concentrated fruit.
A chunky, masculine style of Pinot Noir, reflecting the generosity of Burgundy's Pommard appellation. At its best with roasts and game.
A red wine from the Lorgeril family of Cabardès, grown in vineyards of neighbouring Minervois. Minervois has been described as a 'south-facing amphitheatre', making for a natural sun trap, soaking up the warmth of the Mediterranean.
Drop in to the nearest bike park, take the North Shore lines, jumps, berms or any rough trail. The Rockshox 2012 Domain RC Dual Crown Fork brings the Domain's durability in the BoXXer's 200mm chassis. From rough trails to bike parks, Domain Dual Crown offers simple adjustments and long-term reliability. Motion Control IS damping and a 200mm coil spring render the hardest rides plush.
Domaine de la Bongran is one of Adnams most favoured estates. Why? Because year after year the Thevenet family produce stunning wines - totally unique in style and incredibly generous in flavour. Each wine takes months, if not years, to fully ferment. The grapes are late-picked, and the winery philosophy is totally unhurried. The wine is ready when it wants to be - not when the winmakers dictate. Truley fantastic stuff.

Named after a tarot card La Roue de la Fortune is the player. It is a floral fragrance with notes of jasmine benzoin patchouli and gardenia
We tasted our favourite southern Burgundy from Jean Thévenet's modest domaine in Mâcon-Clessé at the onset of its fermentation in Autumn 2006, and it is probably still bubbling gently as I write, such is the unhurried manner of his winemaking.
