Domaine du Grand Arc
Corbieres, France
Nicolas Schenk is now running the family estate created by his father Bruno. Bruno Schenk is still a legend here at SVS.
He was an engineer in Alsace before he came to buy vineyards in the Corbieres in 1995. At first he sent his grapes to the co-operative, but after one frost affected year he decided he had to come out and bottle his own wines to...

Domaine du Grand Arc, Corbieres Blanc, Veillee d'Equinoxe, 2023
40% Grenache Blanc, 25% Rolle, 25% Roussanne and 10% Macabeu. Very aromatic with red apple, stone fruit and acacia notes. Long, bright finish. Very good value for money. Now-2027.
“This is good stuff! It dances in with mimosa and acacia florals, trailing honeyed creaminess and wild herbs and vetiver and lemongrass. It fills the mouth with satisfying weight and presses gently into every corner, but it is spiky-bright with acidity and freshness. At the end, a little grilled-polenta savouriness. A little bit of bottle age will only develop complexity. Truly Corbières! VGV (TC) 16.5+” Tamlyn Currin, Languedoc Round-up, Summer 2024, jancisrobinson.com, 28th June 2024
We have been buying from Grand Arc since 2002: here Nicolas Schenk is now running the family estate created by his father Bruno. The vines lie on classic argilo-calcaire soils, with some sandstone, around Cucugnan, in a valley of the Massif des Corbières in the south of the appellation, overlooked by the amazing hill-top Cathar castles of Quéribus and Peyrepertuse. The family have been following organic principles for 20 years but Nicolas was behind the final push to certification for the 2016 vintage. He has a keen interest in biodynamics and is also continuing his father's pursuit of minimal intervention, in particular using natural yeasts and only a tiny amount of sulphur at bottling.
Great choice of good-value wines in the January sales. The website is really easy to use to make up an order. Delivery, as is often the case, was within 24 hours and, as usual, was well-packed.Read More
