An understated style, but focus and you`ll see just how lovely the cassis, cherry and raspberry flavors are, carried by riveting acidity and flecked with notes of powdered white pepper and violet. An iron girder drives the finish, pulling everything along. This is defined by pure, sleek cut. Best from 2020 through 2035. 915 cases made. -JM

Needs a little breathing space to open. This offers up dark plums and red cherries with wild herbs and wet slate. The palate has a crisp, fine-grained texture with smooth and fluid dark fruit and dark chocolate flavors. Tannins are a highlight – super plush and long.

Too late, we are SOLD OUT!
This is one stellar bottle of Cornas from none other than Alain Voge. Folks, when a vintage like 2015 comes around, you are going to want stockpile in a serious way. These wines will only increase in value as 2015 will go down in history as one of the best vintages in our lifetime.
About the Producer
Alain Voge and his wife Elaine have been estate-bottling Cornas since the 1950s. With over 70 parcels totaling seventeen acres that are farmed organically and biodynamically, Alain Voge is one of the hottest producers in the region. Despite Parker, Spectator and Dunnuck calling them some of the finest wines made in the world, the Voges remain humble and the kind of people you wish could be your grandparents. Alberic Mazoyer is the consulting winemaker and has further refined these incredible expressions of the granitic terroir.
