Les Grands Chais is a company that is based in France although they have arms that spread across the modern world with wineries in operation in Australia, New Zealand, Chile and Argentina as well as mainland Europe. Their approach is to source exceptional fruit and make modern styles of wines that will be well received. The Good Pair Days wine team were impressed with their Chilean brands, Casa Bollén and Viña Las Niñas as well as the sparkling wines from Baron D’Arignac. On first visiting Les Grands Chais, apart from being overawed with the amount of wines at our fingertips, the team found the wines to be made with a strong focus on quality and showcasing regionality in each bottle. They each have their own story to tell and whether you are a fan of classical styles or discovering something new, they have you covered. We are excited to bring these wines to British shores for the first time.

Pairing guide
Elegant yet packed full of flavour and character, this delicious sparkling wine from the ever-reliable Baron d'Arignac is ideal for sharing over platters of tasty food with friends. It has a particular affinity for fried and battered foods; think crisp tempura vegetables, fish fritto misto, vegetable fritters and battered cod goujons, and will be superb with fresh and raw seafood, crudites, and all kinds of salads. Spicy foods - especially chilli-soaked Korean fried chicken - and anything with caviar will also work a treat.

Wine region

Southern France, France
Also known as the Languedoc-Roussillon wine region in the south of France is one of the largest wine-producing regions in the world. It is known for producing a wide variety of wines, including reds, whites, rosés, and sparkling wines. The region's Mediterranean climate and varied soil types, such as schist and limestone, impart distinct flavours and aromas to the grapes grown there. The area has a long history of winemaking, dating back to the Roman era, and is known for producing high-volume, high-quality wines. The most famous wines from Southern France are typically blends of indigenous grape varieties like Syrah, Grenache, Carignan, and Mourvèdre. The region is a popular destination for wine tourists, offering tastings, tours, and wine festivals.
