THE VINEYARD

The LIBER PATER vineyard remains unique throughout the world. With 4,000 years of existence, it stands today as the oldest of the world. It is the only vineyard to which the Roman god of wine and vine gave its name 2,000 years ago, essentially because of the climatic conditions and the exceptional terroir – soil – on which it is located.

56 BC: a Roman vineyard. Romans, who arrived in Bordeaux in 56 BC, found on the vineyard a great soil and an exceptional climate, which led them to name it Liber Pater. Soon, Liber Pater wines came to be very appreciated from the Roman aristocracy. Already at that time, they were renowned for their elegancy, fruitiness and very personal native tang. The acknowledgement of the wines’ quality and the strategic commercial position, at the crossroads of important maritime and land routes, enabled a broad diffusion of Liber Pater throughout the Roman empire.

XXI^st century : an inimitable ancestral know-how. Today, vine has made its way on every continent ; but thanks to its nature, situation and history, the Liber Pater vineyard remains unique and inimitable. Expression of an ancestral and ever renewed know-how, the Liber Pater wines are recognized throughout the world and served on the most prestigious tables. On March 17th, the Liberalia festival is a privileged moment for discovering the new vintages.
