To the eye
A deep, dense red colour, verging on purple, hinting at the wine’s concentration.

Nose
A complex and intense nose: raspberry jam, blackberry compote, roasted herbs, briny notes, tobacco, a spice rack, a hint of menthol and a touch of gamey character, enhanced by black pepper and fresh violet.

Palate
Rich and powerful on the palate, underpinned by lovely freshness and a tannic structure that is still firm but well-integrated. The granitic minerality balances the body, leading to a long and lingering finish.

Pairing
Ideal with grilled or sauce-based red meats, game, a stew, or full-flavoured mature cheeses. Serve at 16–17°C, decanted to allow it to breathe if the wine is young.

Your questions, our answers.

Is this Cornas suitable if I’m looking for structure without giving up elegance?

Yes: the 2022 is described as both structured and elegant. It therefore fits this search for balance, rather than simply the desire for a powerful red.

Does the warm 2022 vintage produce a wine that lacks freshness?

On the contrary, the description highlights the lovely freshness preserved despite the warmth of the vintage. So you shouldn’t rule out this cuvée solely because of the year’s warm character.

Is this a cuvée to choose if I’m looking for pronounced new oak?

No, it is aged for 16 months in used barrels, with no new oak. It is therefore not the choice to prioritize if new oak is your main criterion, although the information provided does not detail the wine’s aromas.

What does choosing La Geynale offer over a Cornas with no specified lieu-dit?

Here, you’re choosing an identified vineyard site near Reynard, with vines planted in 1910 on decomposing granite and gneiss. The appeal is to discover this specific expression of Cornas, without inferring that it is superior to the appellation’s other cuvées.

Is this bottle suitable for exploring Syrah on its own rather than in a Rhône blend?

Yes: Cornas is made entirely from Syrah, making it a fitting setting for exploring this grape without a blend. La Geynale lets you discover it through century-old vines and whole-cluster vinification.
