The combier family's roots in the Rhone Valley go back to 1936: laurent's grandfather camille came down from the ardéchois plateau and bought a property in la roche de glun with 3 hectares of vines and 4 hectares of apricot trees. In the 1960s, Maurice and Paulette set up farming in the neighboring commune of Pont de l'Isère. In 1970, a difficult economic period for viticulture, they invested heavily in arboriculture. Since they were more interested in growing grapes than in making wine, they joined the Cave Coopérative de Tain l'Hermitage, which they left in 1989. At that time, the estate comprised 5ha of vines, including a plot planted in 1952, the future Clos des Grives in 1990, and 15ha of peach and apricot trees. At the end of the 60s, Maurice combier suffered an allergy to a phytosanitary product. It was an anecdote that would shape his future life as a farmer. He asked himself questions, and one day heard talk of "living soil". In the winter of 1969-1970, he took the plunge and converted the property to organic farming, then in its infancy.

Appellation
Crozes-Hermitage
The appellation Crozes-Hermitage is part of the region of Vallée du Rhône from France which include Domaine Laurent Combier and its 24 cuvées. Spread over The Rhone Valley and its rich, complex terroirs. The region is divided into two distinct subregions: Northern Rhone (known as Rhône Septentrional) and Southern Rhone (Rhône Méridional). In the former we find strong wines in beautiful colours with warm, spicy notes, produced by vineyards that stretch 4,700 ha along the Rhone. The latter, with an area of 71,000 ha, is much more important, and this is evident of course in its annual production of red, rosé and white wines quite unlike those of the Northern Rhone., this region is 3 million hectolitres per year of red wines, rosés, dry and sparkling white wines, and natural sweet wine..
