The Story
Domaine de la Grange des Pères, founded by Laurent Vaillé in the early 1990s after formative experiences with legendary winemakers (Coche-Dury, Chave, Trévallon), became an instant legend with its 1992 first vintage. Now 18+ years into bottle, the 2010 displays what patience and age can reveal. This signature blend (40% Syrah, 40% Mourvèdre, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Counoise) from Aniane shatters regional expectations: cult following for intensity, balance, and rarity. The 2010 shows the wine's evolution toward tertiary complexity while maintaining the structure that built its legend.
