The Clape Cornas 2020, from the granitic slopes of Cornas, is a powerful and elegant Syrah. Notes of dark fruit, violet and spices, dense tannins and a mineral finish. Perfect for cellaring until 2030, it pairs beautifully with game and aged cheeses.
A family estate rooted in the granitic terraces of Cornas, where Syrah expresses itself with rare authenticity.
- Terroir: the steep hillsides of the Cornas appellation, where granite and the northern sun sculpt wines of vibrant minerality.
- Vinification: a traditional approach, where patience and respect for the fruit give rise to precise and profound age-worthy cuvées.
Tasting notes for Domaine Auguste Clape Cornas 2020
To the eye: a deep red robe with garnet reflections, dense and silky.
On the nose: aromas of wild blackberry and black cherry intertwine with notes of violet and black pepper, lifted by a saline and chalky touch.
On the palate: a fleshy yet taut texture, where vibrant acidity and granitic minerality extend a finish of sweet spices and liquorice.
To be served between 16 and 18°C, in a Burgundy-style red wine glass to release its full complexity.
Vintage 2020
A vintage in which controlled heat allowed the Syrah to reach ideal maturity, combining concentration and freshness.
- Aging potential: 15 to 20 years, to be stored in a cool cellar (12-14°C) away from light.
