94 Points, JamesSuckling.com, June 2023 - "A seductive nose of spiced cherries, forest berries, smoke, graphite and black pepper. Medium-bodied with velvety tannins and bright acidity. Such elegance with ample volume on the palate. It's creamy at the edges and crisp at the center. Silky and layered with balance, and a charming yet long and precise finish. Drink or hold."

93 Points, Decanter Magazine 2023 - "Intense clove oak on the nose leads to a full-bodied palate, however the tannins remain sweet and supple, and the finish long. A serious wine, one that will take many years to come round. Considering the power and concentration, the alcohol is remarkably light. Drink: 2030-2038."

“An outstanding effort that’s well worth seeking out.” - JebDunnuck.com

Bright red berry / raspberry-scented fruit with plenty of crushed black pepper notes. Medium body with bright acidity. A very good, versatile Crozes.

So far ahead of the organics game was Laurent's father Maurice, he gained the nickname of Maurice le Fou (Crazy Maurice) when he converted the family's mixed fruit farm over 40 years ago. All that hard work has paid off for his son, and current generation winemaker Laurent Combier. After a short hiatus away from the family farm studying oenology and working at some fancy wineries Laurent returned full of knowledge and gusto, and big decisions were made to pull their grapes from the local co-op and focus on Domaine Combier. Since those important years, Domaine Combier has grown quite a following for their organic, and more importantly, well made wines.
