From Dominque Grangeron: “Our family estate was founded in the late 40’s by my grandfather Etienne who started to work the 2 hectares of Châteauneuf du Pape of my grandmother Jeanette when he married her. With time he could buy more hectares, essentially Grenache. The most important date to remember is when my father Alain joined his parents in 1963 after studying at Agricultural School Bonneterre. He developed other grape varieties such as Syrah and Mourvèdre, and started to work organically. But my father and my grandfather did not sell in bottle, only in bulk to négociants. The other important date to remember is 1999 when Baptiste and I took over the estate and started to bottle our own cuvées of Chateauneuf du Pape. 1st classic in 1999, Renaissance in 2000 and VV in 2004. We were certified organic in 2008. We now produce more than 50000 bottles of red Chateauneuf du Pape and 3000 of white (6% of the appellation). We sell throughout the world and travel a lot, hoping to come one day at Applewood Manor to meet you!”
