Domaine Dard et Ribo - Crozes Hermitage - "Les Blancs des Baties" 2018
Domaine Dard et Ribo is located in the town of Mercurol, north of the Rhône Valley. It was created in the 1980s by René-Jean Dard and François Ribo. Today, they have terroirs on the appellations of Crozes-Hermitage, Saint-Joseph and Hermitage. They produce natural wines to highlight the purity of the fruit, the finesse and the lightness.
Les Blancs des Bâties is made from Marsanne grown organically on red clay terroir. The vinification is traditional with no added sulfites. Direct pressing is followed by a 12-to-14-months aging in demi-muids. The wine is bottled unfiltered.
