Olivier Dumaine

The Dumaine family has resided in the village of Larnage since 1650. Today, Olivier and Maryline Dumaine continue this ancestral tradition. Their capable hands work the steep, terraced parcels in the villages of Larnages and Saint-Jean-du-Muzols. The parcels in Crozes-Hermitage and Saint Joseph are planted with ancient vines grown on granite hills, producing naturally low yields of concentrated, yet balanced wines.

2020 Crozes-Hermitage ‘La Croix du Verre’ Red

Description

“Exuberantly fruity and redolent of smoke, spice and chocolate, this is a lavish but elegantly composed Syrah sourced from vines averaging over 50 years old. Matured 10 months in oak barrels (no new oak), it’s an open-knit, luscious wine layered with soft, chalky tannins that linger on the finish.”

2022 Crozes-Hermitage ‘La Croix du Verre’ blanc

Description

“Brilliant Straw-yellow color. Expressive aromas of fresh orchard fruit and white flowers enlivened by a zesty nuance of orange. A medium-bodied palate of melon, tangerine and pear with just a touch of honeysuckle.”
