オーギュスト・クラプ コルナス
Auguste Clape Cornas
Red
Syrah
Auguste Clape is widely regarded as the benchmark producer of Cornas, a legendary estate that defined the appellation's reputation for power, longevity, and purity. The flagship Cornas cuvée is crafted from 100% Syrah grown on the steep, granite-rich slopes of the Northern Rhône. Known for its uncompromising traditional approach, the estate utilizes whole-cluster fermentation and aging in old oak foudres. The resulting wine is intensely structured, offering profound notes of black fruit, smoked meat, violets, and crushed granite, requiring significant bottle age to reveal its true complexity.
