Alain Voge Cornas Les Vieilles Vignes 2020 750 ML

97 pts - Jeb Dunnuck "The older vine cuvée, the 2020 Cornas Les Vieilles Vignes is 100% Syrah. It's similarly inky hued and offers up full-bodied aromas and flavors of ripe black cherries, graphite, bouquet garni, and iron. It's deep, concentrated, and powerful on the palate, with flawless balance, building yet silky tannins, and a great, great finish. This is a straight-up thrilling Cornas to enjoy over the coming 15+ years. " From Syrah vineyards, more than 30 years old, on decomposed granite slopes, also called "gore". This wine is a lighter style, with some good violet and dark red fruit. The perfect companion for beef, a shoulder of young lamb in its early years, and of game or strongest meat.
