Domaine Alain Graillot

Graillot, always forthright, readily admits to having produced a full crop in 2000. He could as well have been depicting the majority of wines from the Northern Rhone Valley in 2000 when he offered the following description of his wines: "The grapes were healthy and ripe, and the vinifications easy. The wines are aromatic, with supple tannins, but lack real depth. They're not at all out of balance, they just lack a bit of everything. But they show their origins clearly and they'll make perfect restaurant wines, even if they're less important than '98 and '99." Incidentally, following the '99 vintage, Graillot lost access to a parcel of Hermitage vines that he had previously worked en fermage he is now left with only a tiny plot of his own seven-year-old vines. (Numerous importers, including Michael Skurnik Wines, Syosset, NY; Chambers & Chambers, San Francisco, CA; Europvin/ Christopher Cannan Selections, Bordeaux, France)
