The history of La Grange des Pères dates back to the late 1980s when Laurent Vaillé, having just graduated from his physiotherapy studies, changed course and took over with his brother Bernard the small estate of his father, a cereal farmer and wine producer for a cooperative. After training with great winemakers such as Jean-François Coche-Dury in Meursault and Gérard Chave in Hermitage, the estate was officially established in 1992 with a first vintage of red wine immediately acclaimed by Robert Parker. Since the passing of Laurent Vaillé in 2021, it is his brother Bernard who perpetuates the estate's legacy.
