Baptiste Grangeon
"Me and my brother, Baptiste, are the third generation of our family working at Domaine de Cristia. We started working here back in 1999, taking over from my father. The soils were in excellent condition thanks to Dad's biodynamic conception of agriculture. But trying to change old mentalities was a challenge! After our first few vintages, we really found our own style in 2003. That vintage produced some wonderful wine, and The Wine Advocate called us the 'New Superstars from Chateaueuf-du-Pape'. Winemaking is something I'm truly passionate about. And I love working with my brother Baptiste, who is an engine of energy, ideas, positivity and reassurance. But if I wasn't making wine, I'd be a professor of history, or an intrepid explorer a la Indiana Jones!"

Comment on: Domaine Cristia Vacqueyras 2009
This is the best wine in its price that I drank last year. I opened it on New Year's Eve.....and savoured it all evening - it was like drinking ruby velvet, it was full-bodied, it had long finish and was warm and smooth. Full of flavours which just blended with each other, not competing. Truly the most gorgeous wine.

I have to give this wine 5 stars, because it blew me away when I opened it. I hope I can get some more...

I was initially worried when opening as the cork was in a bad state. The wine itself was fine and in the first evening was very drinkable but not outstanding. We finished the bottle on the second day and the wine at that point had really developed and was very nice indeed.
