Discover Cornas Wines

Cornas is a prestigious appellation from the Northern Rhône Valley, renowned for its powerful red wines that are deep and authentic. Made exclusively from the Syrah grape variety, Cornas wines stand among the region’s most iconic along with Côte-Rôtie and Hermitage.

Terroir and Characteristics

The Cornas vineyard is located on the right bank of the Rhône river, south of Tain-l’Hermitage, on steep slopes with full southern exposure. This terroir benefits from exceptional sunshine and poor granite soils, producing wines with strong character that are structured, complex, and crafted for aging.

Wine Profile

Cornas red wines are marked by a dark, intense color and powerful aromas of black fruits, violet, pepper, black olives, and leather. On the palate, they present dense texture, firm yet silky tannins, and a long aromatic finish. With age, Cornas wines develop notes of truffle, game, and undergrowth while retaining balance and freshness.

Food Pairings

Cornas pairs excellently with rich and savory dishes such as roasted red meats, stews, game, artisanal charcuterie, and aged cheeses like Époisses or Comté. It is a gastronomic wine, ideal to open during exceptional meals or to cellar for revealing its full complexity.
