Aromatic, floral, or powerful; Jean-Luc Colombo has it all. From the full-bodied Roussanne to the distinctive Jean-Luc Colombo Les Forots Cotes du Rhone. It's always a treat with Jean-Luc Colombo's delicious wines.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e The French wines of Jean Luc Colombo\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n This winery was born out of pure passion. Its origins lie in Marseille, in the far south of France. Jean-Luc grew up in a family where food was paramount; his mother, after all, was a chef. Later in life, he decided to study oenology and became captivated by the unique French wine regions. He realized that winemaking is an art. An art that begins in the vineyards and ends in the cellar. His vision of winemaking was innovative and revolutionary.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nHe became deeply drawn to the northern Rhône, and especially to the somewhat neglected Cornas region, a region of the Rhône where Syrah is the foundation. Together with his wife, Anne, he founded the Jean-Luc Colombo winery in the early 1980s. He was the odd one out. While wineries had been producing traditional and classic wines for centuries, Jean-Luc Colombo introduced an innovative technique: focusing purely on the terroir and utilizing it optimally.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e The vineyards of Jean-Luc Colombo\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n Jean-Luc Colombo has been established in the most beautiful part of the northern Rhône for nearly forty years. The vineyards are primarily home to the king and queen of the Côtes du Rhône: Syrah and Viognier. However, Jean-Luc Colombo has also given other grape varieties a place in the vineyards. Think of the spicy Mourvedre, the juicy Grenache Noir, and the plump Clairette and Roussanne grapes.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nJean-Luc Colombo also makes wine outside the Rhône. Consider, for example, the Languedoc region, near the village of Les Girelles. Jean-Luc Colombo Les Girelles Picpoul de Pinet has been produced here for years. Picpoul de Pinet wines are truly distinctive. Mineral and salty: ideal with all kinds of seafood.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e The exquisite French wines of Jean-Luc Colombo\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n Jean-Luc Colombo is a highly talented winemaker. This is clearly reflected in the winery's wide selection. Both the white and red wines are excellent, each one better than the last. The Jean-Luc Amour de Dieu Condrieu is the flagship white wine. Jean-Luc Colombo has made a name for himself with the Viognier from Condrieu, the birthplace of the winery. The Cornas also produces a delicious wine. In our opinion, the Jean-Luc Colombo Terres Brulées Cornas Syrah is perhaps the finest red wine from the Cotes du Rhône.","products":[{"product_id":"jean-luc-colombo-les-abeilles-blanc","title":"Jean Luc Colombo Les Abeilles Blanc","description":"A true family estate from the Rhône region, we're talking about Jean Luc Colombo, of course.
