One of the most warmly received wines we offered in cahoots with The Wine Company last year was the 2011 Domaine de la Jasse Vieilles Vignes, a beautifully structured, Bordeaux-style red from the Languedoc.
Readers, and no few Speccie staff and contributors (including your humble correspondent), lapped it up – so I’m delighted that Mark Cronshaw, the Wine Co’s operations director, has nabbed a special parcel of 2012 Domaine de la Jasse Tête de Cuvée Rouge on our behalf, making this a very enticing offer indeed, at a one-off, Spectator-readers-only price.
Domaine de la Jasse lies some 15 km from Montpellier in the heart of the Languedoc – one of France’s wine regions of the moment – and its name comes from the shelter and the shade (known in the local dialect as jasse) provided by the estate’s century-old plane tree.
