With the new Le Petit Grand range, Yvon Mau’s goal is to make the legendary wines of Bordeaux accessible to everyone. This collection captures the essence of the region’s great estates, in a format which is approachable and enjoyable even for wine-lovers who know nothing about Bordeaux.

Just like the little rabbit on the label, that small creature with such great nobility, this wine captures the essence and the elegance of Bordeaux’s greatest wines.

12 x 750 ml
Breads, Cured Meat, Hard Cheese, Red Meat, Roasted Vegetables
"The 2015 'La Devèze' opens to fresh inviting aromas and flavors of raspberries, spiced plum, pepper, black olives all taking shape. On the palate this is medium-bodied and well balanced,with lovely acidity at its core, providing a lovely fresh character to the fruit as it enters the juicy finish. This is already a pleasure to drink, however it should also continue to add even more appeal with some short-term cellaring."

> Learn MoreAt WineOnline.ca we travel the world to ensure we can offer our clients the best red wine, along with the best red wine to be found anywhere. There are all sorts of types of red wines. To name some we have, dry red wine, sweet red wine, full bodied red wine, medium bodied red wine, light red wine, tannic red wine and structured red wine. There is a litany of words used to describe red wine types. There are 10’s of thousands of red wines produced all over the world. There are 1000's of different red grape varietals. Italy, on its own, has over 2000 indigenous grape varietals used to produce red wines of differing style. The most famous grape varietals used in the productions of top red wines are likely those from Bordeaux which include; Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot. Pinot Noir is another very popular red wine varietal which is the only red grape they use for red wine production in Burgundy. In Burgundy, they do not even label the wines with the varietal, but rather the vineyard from which the grapes were grown. A few of the famous ones are Romanee Conti, La Tache, Vosne Romanee, Nuits St Georges, but there are many more good red wine types. At WineOnline.ca, one of our many, but perhaps our most important, job is to taste as many of these wines as possible, and bring in the best, along with the best values, in order to make them available to our clients. It's a tough job, but somebody has to do it.
When it comes to red wine, people’s preferences can be all over the map. Some people choose to take the safe road when it comes to drinking red wine. We do not advocate this approach. Different red wine is going to be appropriate for different times of the day/night/evening etc. The food you are eating is going to affect the taste of your red wine and the taste of your red wine is going to change the flavour of your food. The trick is to find the best red wine takes some experimentation. Don’t just go with the tried and true as you are missing out. Pinot Noir with your fish can be delectable. Nebbiolo with lamb is divine. How could you not love a little Chianti, (Sangiovese), with your eggplant Parmesan? We encourage experimentation. We consider it our job, to help you improve your wine life.
