About the winery:
The Combier estate is located in the south of Tain l'Hermitage. Its 30 hectares of vines are found on the AOC Crozes-Hermitage and Saint-Joseph, in the town of Pont-de-l'Isere. Since 1970, the Combier family has cultivated their land organically. Today, it is Laurent Combier who makes the family estate prosper. A vineyard that continues to produce top-quality wines.
Clos des Grives has become one of the benchmarks among the great wines of the North of the Rhone Valley. As with haute-couture, little hands are daily busy to produce an absolutely unique Cuvee. Requiring time, it always benefits from an additional year of ageing in the bottle.
