"One of the appellation's finest Syrahs!"
"Full-bodied, ripe and rich for a 2023, with surprisingly vibrant acidity. The nose and palate are marked by forest berries, but the style is less perfumed than the Parady. The tannins are taut and fine, this wine is really bursting with energy. "A vintage where it's possible to make very good wines," says Fabrice Gripa." (Decanter 2024)

Guide Hachette des vins
Domaine noté (guide 2024) Award-winning wines (The wines of this producer are regularly awarded by the guide)
About the domain :
The Gripa family arrived in Saint-Péray in the 17th century, then settled in Mauves around 1850. An established name in the northern Rhône Valley, both for its Saint-Péray and Saint-Joseph wines (as witnessed by the numerous Favorites obtained in both appellations), the estate has been run since 2001 by Fabrice Gripa, Bernard's son, now at the head of 18 ha of vines.
RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France
Domaine rated (guide 2024) 2*Stars (These great estates, often endowed with fabulous terroirs, are must-haves which, thanks to their consistency and the excellence of their production, must be included in the cellars of discerning wine lovers).
About the domain :
Fabrice Gripa continues his father's work at the only Mauves estate to produce as many whites as reds. And he masters his subject perfectly, delivering different cuvées with strong personalities. The whites are showcased in four cuvées: two Saint-Péray and two Saint-Joseph. The reds are close to the fruit, with straightforwardness and admirable ageing management. A consistent estate of excellent quality.
