New vintage, 2008 rated: Gault Milau 15/20
The cuvée Les Abeilles opens the domaine's range of wines and marks its entry into the Colombo dimension and style. Les Abeilles blanc is a very fine cuvée, marked by floral notes and fruity aromas of preserved lemon, enhanced by a lovely freshness. A pleasurable wine to enjoy now, or why not as an aperitif?

About the domain :
Laure Colombo, a brilliant young oenologist, joined the family business in Cornas, but decided to set up her own domaine on the heights of Saint-Péray to find her feet. This year, she is offering us a Saint-Péray and a Cornas from her domaine in Lorient. Joining doesn't mean taking over: Jean-Luc is still here, and so the range is built up as a family, between the vineyards of the Côte Bleue and those of the Rhône, and of course sourcing activities, sometimes under the Colombo & Fille label, sometimes under Jean-Luc Colombo. Cornas are still the great wines here, and the modern, rational winery is built at the foot of the hill! In 2017, the delicious vallon-de-l'aigle will be rationed, with only two barrels produced!
