This work by Eric Corberyan and illustrated by Horne immerses the reader in the fascinating story of a wine enthusiast, settled in the heart of the Graves in Landiras. This visionary and daring winemaker has undertaken to recreate the flavors of the great Bordeaux wines as they existed before the phylloxera epidemic that devastated the vineyards at the end of the 19th century.
With historical precision and a palpable love for the Bordeaux terroir, Liber Pater reveals the challenges and triumphs of an ambitious project aiming to revive the forgotten techniques and grape varieties of the 19th century.

This wine, now one of the most expensive and rarest, attests to the success and perseverance of a man. This beautifully illustrated book captures every aspect of this adventure: from technical challenges to the rooting of ancient grape varieties, to the fundamental role of the Graves terroir.
Liber Pater, in homage to the Roman god of wine, invites you to discover a wine that is not just a luxury product, but a true historical heritage, resurrected thanks to a unique and visionary approach.
