Jean Luc Colombo
Jean-Luc Colombo is a relatively young company by French wine standards. With family origins in Marseille, Jean-Luc moved in 1982, with his wife Anne, to Cornas in the heart of the Rhone Valley, to set up a pharmacy and oenology lab.
Four years later he bought his first vineyard - Les Ruchets - and celebrated his first vintage in 1987. His business went from strength-to strength and in 1993 Anne and Jean-Luc sold their pharmacy to focus on the wine business, investing in more vineyards and a house on the Cornas hillsides, as well as working as a negociant in this famous region.
Today, as well as owning vineyards in Cornas, they are pioneering vineyard development in the stunning 'Blue Coast' area and have their own winery, offices, bottling line and oenology laboratory in the centre of Cornas.
They are renowned for their great wines from the northern & southern Rhone and the Mediterranean region, and export to over fifty countries.
