Personalise your experience
From the granitic slopes of Cornas, the Auguste Clape Renaissance 2020 is an exceptional Syrah. Its aromas of blackberry and pepper combine with a balanced palate, silky tannins and chalky minerality. To be enjoyed now or cellared for 5 to 10 years, it enhances meats and aged cheeses.
Domaine Auguste Clape
Heir to a family expertise rooted in the steep slopes of Cornas, the estate embodies the purest expression of Syrah on granite.
- Terroir: Vines planted on granite terraces in the northern Rhône Valley, where the chalky, sloping soil sculpts wines of vibrant minerality and rare tension.
- Vinification: Aged in traditional barrels, respecting natural cycles and seeking elegance without artifice, for cuvées that are both precise and fleshy.
Tasting notes for the wine Auguste Clape Cornas Renaissance 2020
To the eye: Deep red robe with garnet hues, dense and silky.
