About the estate:

The Grier family, owners of a South African vineyard renowned for its sparkling wines, established this 25-hectare estate—comprising a single contiguous plot—in the Fenouillèdes region in 2006. They entrusted its management to Raphël Graugnard, who brings his extensive experience to crafting wines that embody the successful union of the Old and New Worlds.
