2021 Cornas, La Geynale, Domaine Vincent Paris, Rhône

Description

This single vineyard offering comes one of the appellation’s warmest sites, with deep granite soils and southyielding vines produce wines with brooding intensity. There is an expressive nose while plump, mostly black fruit nestles between layers of mouth-coating but velvety tannins. Pepper and a dash of red fruit lifts the finish.

Alistair Cooper MW 17/20
Cask sample. Tasted blind. Attractive, perfumed nose – rose petal, violet. A fresh and lively palate packed full of energy with a core of dark fruits, sandalwood and firm, chewy tannins at present. A nice saline note as well as earthy spice. Attractive and well made.Drink 2025 - 2032Alistair Cooper MW, JancisRobinson.com (December 2022)

The clear standout is the 2021 Cornas La Geynale, a classic, old-school-styled beauty offering meaty, iron-laced red and black fruits, medium body, building tannins, good mid-palate depth, and a great finish. It's up with the crème de la crème of the vintage.jeb_dunnuck, JebDunnuck.com (December 2022)

A gorgeous nose, fresh, precise and surprisingly aromatic for a Cornas. The smoky oak and peppery Syrah spice combine well. Not massive, this is actually quite lean and precise, but there’s a great sense of energy and focus. The tannins are intense, quite sharp and bony but should round out in time. The acidity is really quite intense; this will always be a brisk, athletic Cornas, but it should make some complex old bones—fairly long finish. Whole-bunch fermented from 100-year-old vines grown in Reynard. Aged in used barrels, no new oak. 5,000 bottles made.Drink 2030 - 2041matt_walls, Decanter.com (October 2022)

About this wine

Cornas

Cornas

Cornas was established in 1938. Only reds are made, and solely from the Syrah grape; a contributing factor to their style is the granitic soil. The wines are made traditionally and often spend two years in oak. They are also strong and powerful – a cross between Hermitage and Côte-Rôtie – but typically display less finesse. After five to 10 years of ageing the best examples take on a more elegant and complex character.
