Wine in Cornas

100% Syrah. A very rich mouthfeel with flavors of black fruit, jam, vanilla, spice and mineral notes. Innovation, passion and dedication are what drives Jean-Luc and Anne Colombo, whose contributions to Rhône Valley winemaking are unparalleled. A devotee of the Syrah grape and armed with a pharmacy degree, Jean-Luc and his wife, Anne, opened their wine laboratory in 1984, “Centre Oenologique des Côtes du Rhône” and quickly developed a thriving reputation as a wine consultant throughout France. For their significant life-long contributions to their country, both Jean-Luc and Anne have been awarded the French Legion of Honor, France’s highest civilian award. The Colombo’s innovative approach in the northern appellation of Cornas was nothing short of revolutionary. Today, Jean-Luc Colombo’s wines express the typicity of their terroir with elegance and character, from the Côte Rôtie in the northern Rhône to his Provençal roses. 94pts Wine Spectator 10/17 2015V 91–93pts Vinous 6/18 2016V

Clape Cornas is the very essence of traditionally made Northern Rhône Syrah, born of the ancient clone, “la Petite Syrah,” planted in the village’s best sites, blended for balance and complexity.

Cassis, black raspberry, leather, crushed rock and liquid mineral-like qualities all give way to a full-bodied, concentrated, yet elegant and thrillingly pure Cornas that can be enjoyed anytime over the coming decade or more.

Wine Spectator-France - "Tightly focused, with an iron spine running throughout, giving the core of raspberry, red currant and bitter plum fruit a vibrating energy. White pepper, rosemary and olive notes fill in on the finish. Shows lovely range and drive."

Cornas "Les Chailles" comes from parcels of Syrah grapes, with an average of 30 years old, on granitic terraces bordering a calcareous hill. This proximity gave particular siliceous concretions called "Les Chailles" and a very particular taste to the wine.
