Subject: Superstar of Cornas

Along with Clape and Allemand, Voge’s wines epitomize the soul of Cornas. He produces some of the most impressive, concentrated, rich wines of the appellation. If you don’t believe us, the ultimate Rhone ranger Mr Robert Parker extolls his virtues below. The old vine Vieilles Vignes cuvee comes from vines averaging 30 to 90 years in age. Enjoy!
2011 Alain Voge Cornas
Vieilles Vignes

$480 6pack

94-96 Points Robert Parker

“A remarkable effort, the 2011 Cornas Vieilles Vignes is one of the stars of the vintage. Superbly concentrated with an inky/purple color and a layered texture, it reveals copious aromas of blueberries, blackberries and spring flowers intermixed with hints of pen ink, lavender and graphite. Full-bodied as well as supple and accessible, it should keep for 12-15 years..”
95 Points Wine Spectator

Vibrant, with terrific, chiseled cut to the range of briar, anise, blackberry compote, bay leaf, iron and sanguine notes, all wrapped with singed alder and juniper accents on the finish. Pure and driven. Best from 2016 through 2030.”
