Who makes it?

Dauvergne Ranvier is the association of two enthusiasts who decided to create their own cuvées. François Dauvergne and Jean-François Ranvier founded their Winery in 2004 in the Rhône Valley. Very present upstream, both in the vineyards and during vinification, they rely on solid and privileged relationships with a number of winegrowers.

The range extends from Côte-Rôtie in the north to the Luberon in the south, including Gigondas, Châteauneuf-du-Pape and Costières de Nîmes.
In 2013, they took over the operation of Domaine des Muretins in the Tavel and Lirac appellations.

Since 2020, they have been based at L’Assemblère, a positive energy cellar that was built in Tavel

How is it made?

The syrah grapes for this wine come from a steep terraced vineyard on granite soils.

Fermentation is in stainless steel with part of the wine ageing in oak to add complexity.

What does it taste like?

Big, dark, haunting, spice, anise, liquorice, blackberries and then a floral lift. This is drinking St Joseph - it is big and powerful, but really drinkable.
