Features
"Grand-Père de Delphine et amateur de vins, Emile Grelier fut intronisé par la Connétablie de Guyenne. Les connétables sont gardiens des traditions de qualité et d’authenticité créées à l’époque d’Aliénor d’Aquitaine (XII ème siècle). Nommer notre vignoble Emile Grelier, c’est rendre hommage à une très grande famille qui nous soutient, nous encourage et nous conforte dans nos choix de production en nous témoignant sa fierté d’être associée à une démarche respectueuse, équitable et sincère…"
Ce petit domaine en BIO (8 hectares) a une spécificité rare : il travaille en "agroforesterie".
L'aspect monocultural de la vigne n'a rien de naturel, et crée à terme des déséquilibres. Replanter des arbres au milieu de celle-ci – mais aussi autour des parcelles – permet de ramener la vie : autres plantes, oiseaux, chauve-souris, insectes. Le vignoble est d'ailleurs devenu refuge LPO en 2014.
Les vignes sont plantées à 6 600 pieds/ha, ce qui est plutôt élevé pour un "simple" Bordeaux. Elles sont taillées en Cordon de Royat, plus qualitative de la Guyot : les grappes, moins nombreuses et plus petites, sont mieux réparties sur les pieds. Les palissages sont élevés – 1m40 de feuillage – afin d'avoir la meilleure photosynthèse possible (et donc une bonne maturité)
Les coteaux exposés plein sud ont des sols argileux et argilo-limoneux. Ils conviennent particulièrement bien au Merlot.

What is an author wine?
This can be so diverse depending on the personality of their sire, that it is easier to define what it is not. An author wine is anything but a standard, stereotypical wine, made to please as many people as possible. It is therefore rarely produced in millions of copies, copying itself from vintage in vintage.
An author wine is therefore a wine that does not look like that of the neighbor. Which from year to year will evolve according to the vagaries of the weather and the mood of the author - the two that can be linked. Because the author does not rely on market studies to carry out his boat. He makes his wine as he feels, as he likes, as he can, sometimes ... and too bad if he does not please everyone.
This is why author wines are sometimes classified as "table wine" or "France wine". Because the winemaker did not plan the authorized grape variety*, makes the assembly or vinification recommended in the name **. He is often a bit rebellious, our author. But that is why we like it! ... That said, author's wines are not systematically marginal: they are present in most of the appellations, and can be part of the elite of these this***. Because they are not content to have personality: they are good, in addition! With in general aDegree of TorchabilityVery high: we never tire of it at the end of the first sip.
As author's wines are not chaptalized, levied, hacked ... They can have very different profiles depending on the vintage. It is up to us (resellers and consumers) to accept them as they are, and to remain faithful to the producers, because they need us to continue their activity.
