Whole-cluster fermentation lends a lifted, peppery energy to the nose, ripe red fruit and violet threaded with the iron-tinged earthiness that defines the appellation. The palate is fresh and mineral-driven, with a structure that speaks to both the vintage's vitality and Graillot's unfussy, terroir-first approach. Certified organic, and built with the kind of quiet confidence that has made this domaine a reference point in Crozes-Hermitage for decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMore About The Winery\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"223\" data-end=\"648\"\u003eFounded in\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"234\" data-end=\"242\"\u003e1985\u003c\/strong\u003e,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"244\" data-end=\"270\"\u003eDomaine Alain Graillot\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ehas become one of the most respected names in the\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"321\" data-end=\"339\"\u003eNorthern Rhône\u003c\/strong\u003e, particularly in the appellation of\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"376\" data-end=\"396\"\u003eCrozes-Hermitage\u003c\/strong\u003e.
