The flagship cuvee from one of Crozes-Hermitage's finest producers, in its mature stride. Clos des Grives honors the oldest parcel at Domaine Combier, a 9.5-hectare plot planted in 1952 on a clay-limestone plateau south of Tain l'Hermitage. It's 100% Syrah, hand-harvested, fermented with native yeasts and aged a year in oak, made by Laurent Combier, who converted the estate to organic and then biodynamic farming. The cooler, classic 2011 vintage gave fresh, well-balanced wines, and this bottling proves that Crozes can deliver intensity and ageworthiness, not just easy fruit. Decant before serving.

More about Combier

Founded in 1834 in Saumur in the Loire Valley, Combier pioneered the triple sec category and later resurrected Élixir—a 19th-century recipe discovered in the distillery's archives for a herbal liqueur that somehow tastes like both history and very much alive. The brand was built on the idea that spirits should taste like what went into them, not like marketing. That philosophy still holds. These are liqueurs with backbone and meaning.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Grilled or braised beef, lamb, peppered steak, or roasted root vegetables. The savory side suits black-pepper and herb-forward dishes.

Tasting Profile

Medium to full-bodied, with black fruit, black pepper, violets and a touch of smoky oak. Fresh acidity, fine tannins and a long, savory finish.
