This Crozes-Hermitage comes from Syrah grapes grown in its own vineyards located in the homonymous municipality and conducted in biodynamic. In the cellar the grapes are 90% de-stemmed, the remaining part not de-stemmed will favor a spontaneous fermentation without selected yeasts; the macerations last 20 days and the aging is done in 500 liter barrels for 12 months with a capacity of evolution of many years.
A great duo the one of Jean Rene Dard and Francois Ribo formed in the early eighties. The two colleagues started with a small plot of land of just one hectare in the village of Mercurol. It started right away with today's ideas but very avant-garde times. In 1984 their first vintage came out and already from that vintage fermentations are spontaneous, sulfur dioxide almost totally absent, there is no temperature control and only copper and sulfur are used in the vineyard. Basically a single goal that is stubbornly pursued today with the same principles: to enhance the terroir with easy-drinking wines, because wine must be drunk.
