Bordered by the "Via Domitia", crossed by the "salt" road and the "fishmonger's" road, the Domaine la Grangette is steeped in history. In the Middle Ages, the lands were part of the seigneury of the Baron of Guers.
The fields were cultivated with cereals and alfalfa to feed the castle's large cavalry (hence its name, Grangette, meaning small barn). Vines were also grown on a few plots; very old stone vats attest to winemaking well before the Revolution. The wine cellar is located in the restored stables of the estate, built in the 18th century.
Located between the sea and the Cévennes mountains, bordered to the south by the Thau Lagoon and to the north by the historic town of Pézenas, Domaine la Grangette lies in the heart of the Picpoules de Pinet Protected Designation of Origin. Today, the estate covers sixty hectares, eighteen of which are planted.
Bordered by garrigue stretching 6 km to Montagnac, this area offers numerous opportunities for walks and bike rides, following a network of paths winding through vineyards, garrigue, and pine forests, from which you can discover both the mountains and the sea. We are the only estate to produce Piquepoul in all three colors; our range includes 11 wines. We cultivate our vines with a commitment to respecting the environment. Our low yields contribute to an exceptional concentration of aromas.

Tongue and cheek take on Picpoul de Pinet, labeled as “Poule de Pic,” a pecking hen picking at feed. The chicken’s varietal picpoul is a rich and viscous one, phenolic and platinum gold to suggest a few minutes more skin contact than the norm. Also suggestive of ripeness and another level of seriousness these wines don’t often make for the ambitious try. Tons of flavour, extract and even a spot of late appearing tannin. Brine a hen, prepare it as fried chicken and pair with some pickled peppers. Just don’t ask, if Peter Piper pickled a peck of poule di pic, where's the peck of poule de pic that Peter Piper pickled? Drink 2026-2028. Tasted February 2026.

This is a delectable picpoul de pinet, with notes of citrus and orchard fruit and apple blossoms. The real attraction here is the palate - I really like its texture. Fleshy and rounded, ripe and fruity, it has a pleasing impression of sweetness that is balanced by a hint of bitterness and lively acidity. Broadly appealing and easy-to-like, this is a relatively uncommon white wine that might spark conversation at a dinner party and should pair well with fried calamari or fish and chips. Tasted February 2026.

About the Winery
Domaine Baud Père et Fils
The history of Domaine Baud dates back to 1742, and it wasn't until 1950 when René Baud, the 7th generation, rebuilt the vineyard which had suffered from the phylloxera crisis and two World Wars.
Starting with only 4 hectares, the vineyard progressively expanded to 20 hectares with the help of successive generations. Now, managed by siblings Clémentine and Bastien, the 9th generation, the estate continues to flourish and grow, with a strong commitment to sustainable viticulture and preserving the traditions and style that makes the wines of the Jura so unique and incredible.
The estate achieved the Terra Vitis certification in 2014 for its eco-friendly work and environmental preservation.
Paddy Borthwick
Proudly family owned, the Borthwick vineyard is an established vineyard situated in Gladstone, the heart of the Wairarapa. Producing quality wine for over a decade, Paddy, an experienced wine maker, has gained a reputation for producing consistently great wines. The twenty seven hectares of vines bordering the Ruamahunga River are growing on stony, free draining, alluvial soils, with a micro climate giving warm daily temperatures, cool nights and low rainfall; perfect conditions for producing distinctive, quality wines.
In line with the family’s legacy of international trade, 90 percent of the wine is exported around the world. Paddy believes in sustainability and best practice within a vineyard, developing an asset for generations to come.
Like the four P’s of marketing, we believe in the four P’s of Wine: Place, People, Passion, and Philosophy.
Zuani
Zuani winery is located in the heart of Collio, Friuli, a hidden appellation between the Adriatic Sea and the Alps. Coming from a long tradition of winemakers in Croatia that goes back to the 19th century, Patrizia Felluga saw her dream come true when she acquired the estate and the vineyards in 2001. Today, her son and daughter have taken over the winery; producing exclusively white wines. Everything hinges on one exceptionally well exposed “cru”, or vineyard, on a gentle hillside where about eleven acres of vines and gardens surround the Zuani cellar.
The varietals planted are Tocai Friulano, Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio and Sauvignon, a carefully chosen range that produced the first vintage of Zuani Collio Bianco. The Zuani winery embodies the Felluga family winemaking heritage and expresses the fundamental unity of the traditional aspects of Friulian varieties with their more modern side.
