Alain Voge, Cornas "Les Chailles" 2019, 750 mL

Made from 40-year-old vines, a blend of different lieux-dits in the granite foothills of Cornas. The name itself, meaning “chert”, refers to the siliceous rock specific to the area. Silky, refined and juicy; the nose displays ripe berry fruit – red cherries, kirsch, blackcurrants, and raspberry coulis. There is a touch of smoke and a bed of fine tannins. 100% Syrah
