The Gripa family has a multi-generational history in the village and their family winemaking traditions still remain key to the operations of the Domaine today. Fabrice Gripa, the current owner, looks after the Domaine with the help of his father Bernard.
The Domaine is composed of sixteen hectares of vineyard, half white wines and half red wines. 3.5 hectares under the appellation of Saint-Péray which is a truly rare white producing appellation, amongst a sea of neighbouring reds. Domaine Gripa’s Saint-Péray is aged in 600- and 228-litre oak barrels, on fine lees until the end of the malolactic fermentation.
Why do we like it?
It’s an incredible wine and one of the best white in the region showing pure crystalline minerality, ripe stone fruit with a hint of saline on the nose. Long, with precise acidity and a wonderful ripe yellow apple, pear supported by a delicious nutty character behind, good weight and richness of fruit are balanced by the zippy core. Sheer pleasure!
