EAN Code: 3760256771006"Domaine de la Grand 'Ribe" ("ribe" meaning "frontier" in Provençal language) straddles the Drôme and Vaucluse areas. Founded in 1940, this family-owned estate which has been certified organic since 2002, and NOP since 2007 cares equally about protecting its terroir and producing wines naturally: harvesting by hand, vinification and ageing in an underground cellar or in oak casks all demonstrate its commitment to quality.
