With his collection of wines from the south of France, Jean-Luc Colombo opens up to the terroirs of Languedoc and Provence, notably with the Les Pins Couchés cuvée in the Coteaux d'Aix-en-Provence appellation. The 2008 Rosé is a classic, perfect for summer, very delicate, round, and refined. It surprises with its complexity on the palate, with notes of raspberry, fresh cherry, black olive, and fennel... A taste of relaxation in the shade of the pine trees...

Rated estate (2022 guide) 3 stars (High-quality production, serving as a benchmark in its sector)

About the estate:

Laure Colombo, a young and brilliant oenologist, joined the family business in Cornas but wanted to create her own estate on the heights of Saint-Péray to find her feet. This year, she is offering us a Saint-Péray and a Cornas from her Lorient estate. Joining does not mean taking over. Jean-Luc is still there, so the range is being built as a family, between the Côte Bleue and Rhône vineyards, and of course the sourcing activities, sometimes under the Colombo & Fille label, sometimes under Jean-Luc Colombo. The Cornas wines remain the great wines here, and it must be said that the modern, efficient winery is built at the foot of the hillside! In 2017, the delicious Vallon-de-l'Aigle will be rationed, with only two barrels produced!
