This dry white wine is a blend of Vermentino and Grenache grapes which reveals fresh and zesty aromas of apple and lemon, followed by a stone fruit taste on the palate. While ideal as an apéritif, you can also enjoy Le Grand Duc with salads, light cheeses, grilled fish, and seafood. You could also try it with glass noodles with salmon, chilli, and coriander.
Le Grand Duc gets its name from the large and powerful eagle-owl often found hunting for small mammals in many French vineyards. Majestic and barrel-shaped, the commanding aristocratic presence of the bird leads to its nickname, The Grand Duke

Le Grand Duc is named for the somewhat fearsome eagle-owl that can be spotted following the lines of French vine rows as it hunts its prey. The Le Grand Duc brand itself is Le Bon Vin's own French Vin de Pays line which it supplies to many UK restaurants and events, working with quality French producers it has developed solid relationships with them through several decades.
GRAPES: Vermentino, Grenache Blanc
PREPARATION: Vermentino, or Rolle, and Grenache Blanc grapes are often used to craft the crisp, lightly acidic wines from the Languedoc-Roussillon and Provence regions. These two varieties blend together beautifully, to bottle summer itself.
