The estate and the wine |
|
|
A prolific winemaker in the Rhône Valley, Jean-Luc Colombo has built a highly acclaimed estate known for its precision and excellence. With a deep respect for the land, he has crafted a diverse range of cuvées, expertly vinified to balance elegance and generosity, always with sustainability in mind.
Based in Cornas since 1980, Colombo is a true icon of the appellation. Today, he has passed the torch to his daughter, Laure, who continues his legacy, producing wines that captivate from the very first sip. |

The 2021 Red Cornas Terres Brûlées is a shining example of what Syrah can achieve in Cornas. With its fresh, balanced character, it immediately draws you in with refined smoky aromas, wild blackberries, and hints of dark fruit. The palate is velvety and inviting, delivering a satisfying blend of approachability and depth. A touch of oak adds just the right amount of structure and nuance, enhancing the overall harmony. Decant it to fully enjoy its youthful vibrancy, or lay it down for a few years to unlock even greater complexity. |
