Dard & Ribo Crozes Hermitage Blanc 2023

Marsanne & rousanne fermented and aged in wood casks and oak barrels.

From importer Louis/Dressner: René-Jean Dard and François Ribo started their estate in 1983 in a back street of Tain-l'Hermitage. There was about a hectare from Dard’s family, all the rest was rented or slowly acquired over the years. 

In their cellar, part of a large farm building in the hamlet of Blanche-Laine in Mercurol, they craft subtle, unextracted syrah for immediate enjoyment (though the wines age beautifully) and several whites from and rousanne and marsanne.
