The Domaine is located in the lieu dit of La Pétière in Saint-Fiacre with the word “Combe” referring to a topographical feature, somewhat like a valley, where the Domaine is situated. The vineyards are situated on the banks of the Sèvre river, with southern exposure, the only such lieu dit in the Saint-Fiacre village with this favorable aspect. The 12 hecatres of vineyards of Domaine de la Combe represent a monopole of their unique La Pétière terroir. Pierre-Henri Gadais, fifth generation of the Gadais family, has taken the reigns as winemaker for the family’s new domaine.

Vines are planted at a density of 7700 vines per hectares. Grapes are hand-harvested.

2014 Vintage: A variable year with very few consistent stretches of the same weather. Warm and sunny one day, followed by rain and clouds the next. The beginning of the season saw higher than normal rainfall which increased mildew pressures and saw the development of other fungal diseases in the vineyard. What would've been a poor vintage was saved by a near-perfect September. For 6 weeks starting the beginning of the month, sunshine and warm temperatures helped to accelerate ripening making up for lost time and dry conditions nearly wiped out all signs of rot in the vineyard. By harvest time, the quality was very high and wines showed good balance, concentration and complexity.
