Cornas Northern Rhone Valley Wines Complete Guide
LVT 2019 r 2019 wh Since 2004 until the summer of 2018, Alain Voge was in a partnership with Albéric Mazoyer, an Ardechois man who used to work at Chapoutier as a vineyard and winemaking advisor. Alain worked all his life at Cornas since his teenage years and continued to be very involved with his domaine until his death in early September, 2020. Albéric's successor is Lionel Fraisse. In the earliest days, I find a slight sense of more fleshy content under him, an accentuation of greater overt richness, while the whites may have a little more poise, a good thing.
There have always been many different wines at this domaine, with various versions based on vineyard ages and oaking levels. The best two, the Cornas Vieilles Vignes and the Cornas Les Vieilles Fontaines, are very good - full, with a good core of sweet fruit and tannic persistence. They drink notably well around 5 to 10 years old. Appraising the 2018 Cornas range, I found the *** Les Chaillés (€32) mechanical, clipped when young, the ****(*) Les Vieilles Vignes (€46) capable of being stylish and convincing, and the ***(*) Les Vieilles Fontaines (€80) neo-modern, arm's length wine in search of 'tension'. There was some acetate present in them, which should burn off. With the 2019 vintage, the Vieilles Vignes was a real vin de tendresse, a most beautiful do, ***** wine that Alain was surely proud of, while the 2019 Les Chaillés was a lively, genuine **** wine.
Cornas AOC - Wikipedia
The St-Péray also comes in oaked and non-oak styles, and there is a little sparkling St-Péray as well. The St-Péray Les Terres Boisées was renamed Ongrie [after its site] in 2016, and is an accurate reflection of its granite and clay soils on Hongrie - STGT wine in 2011, 2012 and 2016, ****(*) in 2018, **** in 2019, the clay aiding moisture retention in the hot summers, with the vines now over 40 years' old. A red St-Joseph was first produced in 2005 from a rented site near Cornas. At times, the oak can be intrusive if the wines are drunk too young. The domaine recently converted to biodynamic practices.
