Alain Graillot founded the domaine in 1985, releasing his first vintage from a rented vineyard. The domaine quickly rose to prominence and only three years after its establishment, Graillot purchased the vineyards he had been renting. Today, the domaine makes a range of predominantly Syrah-based wines in Crozes-Hermitage, Hermitage, and Saint-Joseph. The estate is comprised of around 22 hectares (54 acres) of vineyard land planted mostly to Syrah with about 3 hectares (seven acres) planted to the white varieties Marsanne and Roussanne. The Syrah from Graillot's Crozes-Hermitage vineyard was planted in 1973 on well-draining soils made of sand, gravel, and alluvial stones. Graillot also owns two parcels planted to Syrah in Saint-Joseph and a tiny plot in Hermitage. The vineyards are all farmed organically and fruit is hand-harvested. After harvest, red grapes are whole-cluster fermented in lined concrete vats. The wines are aged one year in mostly old oak barrels and are lightly filtered but not fined. La Guiraude from Crozes-Hermitage is Alain Graillot's top wine and is only bottled in the best vintages. The total production of the domaine is around 10,000 cases annually. Alain Graillot retired in 2008 and his sons Antoine and Maxime (who also runs Domaine des Lises) took over the estate. Graillot passed in March 2022 but his legacy in the Crozes-Hermitage region will be an enduring one.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2024-02-05T15:31:55-05:00","created_at":"2024-02-01T07:05:37-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","NK280124","Other_Wine","Producer_Domaine Alain Graillot","Region_Rhone","Source_Hedonism0124","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Syrah"],"price":37895,"price_min":37895,"price_max":37895,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":44259668721802,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2006 | Domaine Alain Graillot | Crozes-Hermitage","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":37895,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/69_6153cc73-2b1f-4020-8a55-a71ef89faa85.jpg?v=1706789164"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/69_6153cc73-2b1f-4020-8a55-a71ef89faa85.jpg?v=1706789164","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2006 | Domaine Alain Graillot | Crozes-Hermitage at CaskCartel.com","id":26042328940682,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.6,"height":1000,"width":600,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/69_6153cc73-2b1f-4020-8a55-a71ef89faa85.jpg?v=1706789164"},"aspect_ratio":0.6,"height":1000,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/69_6153cc73-2b1f-4020-8a55-a71ef89faa85.jpg?v=1706789164","width":600}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2006 | Domaine Alain Graillot | Crozes-Hermitage\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2006 Crozes-Hermitage boasts a captivating aroma combining roasted meat with sweet black cherries and herbal notes such as rosemary and thyme.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrder from the Largest \u0026amp; Most Trusted Premium Spirits Marketplace! \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatured in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eROLLING STONE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMEN'S JOURNAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUS WEEKLY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTICE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Many other small liquor store sites may end up cancelling your order due to the high demand, unavailability or inaccurate inventory counts.  We have partnerships consisting of a large network of licensed retailers from within the United States, Europe and across the world ensuring orders are fulfilled.   \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eProducer:\u003c\/b\u003e Domaine Alain Graillot\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVintage\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2006\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 750ml\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Syrah\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\/Region:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e France, Rhone\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDetailed Description\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2006 Crozes-Hermitage boasts a captivating aroma combining roasted meat with sweet black cherries and herbal notes such as rosemary and thyme.
