Jean-Luc Colombo is one of the Rhône Valley's most respected figures, a pioneering winemaker based in Cornas who helped transform the appellation's reputation in the modern era. Les Abeilles, named for the bees that thrive on the estate's flowering plants, is his approachable Côtes du Rhône Rouge, a blend of Grenache and Syrah that delivers the warmth and generosity of the southern Rhône with genuine finesse and a bright, food-friendly finish.
