Product Description

Overview

Winery: Colombier

Toasty, savory nourishing red. Medium weight with detectable acidity but very comfortable, confident winemaking.  The structure is well balanced with a long and slightly tannic finish. The wine will benefit from a 10-20 minute decanting before serving. A lovely expression of the appellation.

Goes well with "Charcuterie" and cheese. Great with anything BBQed as well.

 

 

Review:

This may not be as potent or complex as Colombier's Cuvée Gaby, but it comes close, which makes it an excellent value. Meaty, savory notes are ideally suited for accompanying autumn game or winter stews, yet the tannins are supple, making it approachable already."

The Domaine de Colombier Estate

Domaine du Colombier is located in the Northern Rhone Valley, in the left bank of the Rhône River. The estate has been part of the family since the First World War. The owners gradually moved from a sharecroppers status to that of owners. Florent Viale joined his father in 1990 and decided to bottle part of their production in 1991. Now they sell 80% in bottle, 20% in bulk.

The Domaine de Colombier Vineyard

This 12 hectare (30 acres) Domaine spreads over the two communes of Tain l'Hermitage and Mercurol and is comprised of:

1.6 hectares (4 acres) of Hermitage

1.2 hectares (3 acres) of white Crozes-Hermitage

9.2 hectares (23 acres) of red Crozes-Hermitage.

Total: 12 hectares (30 acres)

The vineyard, located on stony hillside, is planted with old vines (50-55 years of age): Syrah for the red and Marsanne for the white. The grapes are harvested by hand.
