Cornas 2018 Les Vieilles Fontaines - Alain Voge

Alain Voge

 

On the place called "La Fontaine", there is a spring that used to supply water to the house of a noble family from Cornas. The cuvée Les Vieilles Fontaines was created by Alain Voge in 1988, on this beautiful granite terroir, magnified by our oldest Syrah. Produced only for certain exceptional vintages, Les Vieilles Fontaines fully illustrates the strong personality of Cornas and the spirit of their work.
