Presentation :
You don't become a legendary wine by chance...
In 2005, Loïc Pasquet and his wife Alona, great wine lovers, settled in Landiras. The following year, they produced their first vintage. Here, horses replace tractors, planting densities are pushed to the extreme, everything is done to give wine back the taste and authenticity of fine Bordeaux wines as they were at the time of the Official Classification of 1855, before the phylloxera epidemic. And to say that it works is an understatement ! The fruit of a true success story, "Liber Pater" (named after the Roman god of wine, if you can call that anything) has become in just a few years a wine recognized worldwide, whose bottle prices sometimes soar... to several thousand euros !
Corbeyran and Horne paint a portrait of a wine unlike any other and of its creator, who came to the trade late and is passionate above all. A graphic novel set in the world of oenology, sincere and captivating, in the vein of Ignorants by Étienne Davodeau.
The Author :
Born in 1964 in Marseille, Corbeyran lives and works in Bordeaux. After dabbling in photography, children's stories and advertising, he turned definitively to comic book writing, an activity he has been engaged in since 1990, with about forty albums published to date (notably with Dargaud, Delcourt and Casterman). Curious about everything, fond of images and anecdotes, Corbeyran is interested in the most varied subjects and tackles many genres: fantasy, historical, thriller, adventure, detective... Comfortable in rather muscular genres, Dargaud gave him the opportunity in '93 to publish stories imbued with tenderness and poetry such as Graindazur or L'As de Pique. From his regular collaborations with Berlion, Falque and Guérineau, we will remember a few titles of mainstream series that are now part of the comic book landscape: Le Cadet des Soupetard, Sales Mioches !, Le Fond du Monde and Le Chant des Stryges. 1999, publication of a new album in the Long Courrier collection: Lie-de-vin at Dargaud which was nominated for the Alph'Art for best album of the year at Angoulême 2000.
