A story of passion and patience for this family estate of 18 hectares of vines in the Croze Hermitage appellation: Luc and Catherine Tardy, have been working at Domaine du Murinais since 1998, with a history dating back to 1768. Working organically, the soils are ploughed, ridged and hoe-worked by hand. This is the work of a goldsmith for Luc Tardy, who "likes his wines to breathe the place where they were born, to express what he feels in the middle of his vines, inside his cellar".
