Jean-Luc Colombo Cotes Du Rhone Les Abeilles Blanc 75cl - French White Wine

Innovation, passion and dedication are what drives Jean-Luc and Anne Colombo, whose contributions to Rhône Valley winemaking is unparalleled. Armed with a pharmacy degree, Jean-Luc and his wife, Anne, opened their wine laboratory in 1984, “Centre Oenologique des Côtes du Rhône” and quickly developed a thriving reputation as a wine consultant throughout France. The Colombo’s innovative approach in the northern appellation of Cornas was nothing short of revolutionary. Today, Jean-Luc Colombo’s wines across a range of style express the typicity of their terroir with elegance and character, from the Côte Rôtie in the northern Rhône to his Provençal roses

“Les Abeilles” (The Bees) is named for the bees that inhabit the vineyards in the southern Rhône Valley where this Côtes du Rhône is produced. The bees thrive in these vineyards because no harsh pesticides are used. This wine is made from a blend of indigenous grape varieties - Clairette, Roussanne, and a touch of Grenache Blanc.

Tasting Note:
Fine and intense floral aromas, notes of fresh fruits and candied lemon. Nicely rounded and fresh, surprises with its complexity, freshness and lively structure.
