A dream come true
Ismo Rantala, the founder of La Robina, dreamed of producing extraordinary wines in France. This dream became a reality after the Finnish-American couple, Ismo Rantala and Petra Soderling, decided to return to Europe, settle in one of the world's finest wine regions, and embark on an adventure in natural wine. The family business rapidly expanded into an extended family enterprise, involving key personnel decisions.
Thanks to our ancient winery building, over 300 years old, the vineyard benefits from a perfect cellar temperature for the production of high-end natural wines that showcase the remarkable quality of the region.
