Tasting notes
This cuvée is one of the two signature reds of Domaine Alain Voge, alongside Cornas Les Vieilles Vignes. It embodies a fruit-driven expression that balances density with finesse. A long, gentle maceration brings out nuanced notes of dark cherry and subtle liquorice, while building a beautifully rounded volume on the palate. The result is a poised, harmonious wine that combines generosity of fruit with elegance and precision.
More About The Winery
Domaine Alain Voge is one of the benchmark estates of the Northern Rhône, deeply rooted in Cornas and Saint-Péray. The estate was established in the early 20th century and gained recognition under Alain Voge, who took over in 1958 and played a key role in restoring the reputation of Cornas and reviving the white wines of Saint-Péray. His work focused on meticulous vineyard management and a strong commitment to expressing terroir.
Today, the domaine covers around a dozen hectares across Cornas and Saint-Péray, cultivated organically and following biodynamic principles. The winemaking philosophy is precise and traditional, with careful fruit selection, gentle extraction, and restrained use of oak to preserve freshness, purity, and structure.
In Saint-Péray, the wines are primarily made from Marsanne, sometimes complemented by Roussanne, producing textured, mineral-driven whites with floral aromatics and excellent ageing potential. Now led by Lionel Fraisse, Domaine Alain Voge continues to craft elegant, terroir-focused wines that stand among the finest expressions of both Cornas and Saint-Péray.
