No doubt it's nostalgic to think that this departed wine genius was one of the appellation's greatest virtuosos. A magical discovery of this last vintage.
Scanned bottle Domaine Alain Graillot
Domaine Alain Graillot is a domain from the region Vallée du Rhône in France, that produces 2 wines available to purchase, including the wine Crozes-Hermitage 2017.
Appellation
Crozes-Hermitage
The appellation Crozes-Hermitage is part of the region of Vallée du Rhône from France which include Domaine Alain Graillot and its 2 cuvées. Spread over The Rhone Valley and its rich, complex terroirs. The region is divided into two distinct subregions: Northern Rhone (known as Rhône Septentrional) and Southern Rhone (Rhône Méridional). In the former we find strong wines in beautiful colours with warm, spicy notes, produced by vineyards that stretch 4,700 ha along the Rhone. The latter, with an area of 71,000 ha, is much more important, and this is evident of course in its annual production of red, rosé and white wines quite unlike those of the Northern Rhone., this region is 3 million hectolitres per year of red wines, rosés, dry and sparkling white wines, and natural sweet wine..
