In 2001, the aromatic Syrah grape variety expresses itself by a lot of aromatic richness and draws its freshness from the granitic soil of the appellation

Appearance
Intense red

Nose
Aromas of blackcurrant, cherry and blackberry

Palate
Notes of black fruits with a spicy and peppery aftertaste A fresh finish with notes of licorice Nice acidity

The distinguishing feature of the Cornas vineyard lies in its particular amphitheater shape It is believed that the Rhone River has shaped the appellation and carved out a very steep incline right inside it

The soil is shallow and composed mostly of massive granites rich in potassium, iron, and magnesium It also enjoys a microclimate created by a combination of sun and mistral wind.

Vinification

Hand-harvested and vinified in whole grapes.

Extended maceration to obtain a concentrated wine built for years of aging, with an almost intense red color.

Ageing

Extended maturation in large new and old tuns, favoring the softening of the tannins and limiting the contribution of woody notes.
