Domaine Dard et Ribo Crozes Hermitage Pe de Leup 2024

Domaine Dard et Ribo’s Crozes-Hermitage 'Pe de Loup' 2024 is a pure, expressive Syrah from one of the Rhône Valley’s most respected artisanal producers. Known for its lively fruit, mineral backbone, and restrained, terroir-driven style, it captures the elegance and energy that have made Dard et Ribo a benchmark name in the Northern Rhône.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a deep ruby color with a vibrant, youthful edge. The nose is precise and aromatic, with dark berries, black pepper, violets, and a subtle savory, earthy character that reflects the granite-rich Rhône landscape. On the palate, expect a medium-bodied wine with fresh acidity, fine tannins, and a linear, mineral-driven profile. The fruit is often framed by peppery spice and a slightly smoky, floral dimension, giving the wine both charm and structure. While approachable young, it should also develop added complexity over the next few years, gaining more nuance and depth with short-term cellaring.

Production
Produced in Crozes-Hermitage in the Northern Rhône, this wine reflects the region’s granite and alluvial soils, which help give Syrah its distinctive tension and aromatic lift. Domaine Dard et Ribo is known for working with low-intervention principles and careful vineyard selection, aiming to preserve purity of fruit and site expression. Harvest is typically done by hand, and vinification is guided by gentle extraction and minimal handling to maintain freshness and transparency.

Food & Serving
This Syrah is an excellent match for grilled lamb, roast duck, charcuterie, or dishes with herbs and peppery seasoning. It also pairs well with mushroom-based plates, lentils, and other savory, earthy fare. Serve slightly below room temperature, around 16–18°C, and consider a brief decant if opened young to help the wine unfold.

Producer
Domaine Dard et Ribo is a highly regarded estate in the Northern Rhône, founded by lifelong friends René-Jean Dard and François Ribo.

Their wines are widely admired for their precision, balance, and artisanal character, making the domaine one of the most respected names in Crozes-Hermitage and beyond.
