Cornas 2009 from Domaine Auguste Clape embodies the elegance of Cornas Syrah. Aged in large oak casks, this wine offers notes of blackberry, spice and flint. Dense and precise, it combines silky tannins with minerality. Perfect through 2037 with game or hard cheeses.
Domaine Auguste Clape
Nestled in the heart of Cornas, this family estate embodies a legacy of Syrah shaped by the schist soils of the Ardèche, where each generation refines the dialogue between terroir and time.
- Terroir: The steep slopes of Cornas, with their granite and schist soils, shape wines of vibrant minerality and rare concentration, true to the Protected Designation of Origin.
- Winemaking: Whole-cluster fermentation and aging in old large oak casks preserve the purity of the fruit and the tension of the terroir, without artifice.
Tasting notes for Domaine Auguste Clape Cornas 2009
Appearance: A deep red color with garnet highlights, dense and silky.
On the nose: First come aromas of wild blackberry and fresh blackcurrant, followed by notes of violet and black pepper, then a touch of licorice and subtle chalky salinity.
On the palate: A precise opening, where a fleshy texture meets lively acidity and granite minerality, leading to a long, elegant finish supported by silky tannins.
Serve at 16°C in a Burgundy-style red wine glass to release its full complexity.
2009 vintage
A generous vintage in which summer warmth ripened the grapes without diminishing their freshness, offering a rare balance of power and finesse.
- Aging potential: Enjoy through 2037, provided it is stored in a cool cellar (12–14°C) away from light.
