The Character

Tasting Notes A vibrant balance of ripe dark fruit and earthy depth. Expressive aromas of blackberries and plum are complemented by subtle hints of spice and forest floor, while the palate offers a smooth, medium-bodied structure with well-integrated tannins and a refreshing, mineral-driven finish. It's an elegant and terroir-driven expression, offering both complexity and approachability.
Sustainability Green Practicing, Natural Fermentation

The Story

This wine, feral and exciting, issues from an old vines parcel on the flats in Cornas. The soil is sand and clay overlain with large “galet” stones. The vinification is the same as is used for the more prestigious wines of the cellar. Best described as a “mini-Cornas”, it’s outside of its generic category of Côtes du Rhône.

About Guillaume Gilles

Producer Story

Guillaume’s Cornas is unfailingly expressive, deep, powerful, and spicy, humming with terroir and easily rivaling the greatest creations of the appellations old masters. Guillaume Gilles is convinced that Cornas is at its best when one follows the most traditional of paths.He eschews the destemmer (in virtually all cases), works his vineyards by hand, ages his wine in old demi-muids and bottles without fining or filtering. His Cornas is as it should be and is exactly as we like it: brawny, sometimes austere, profound, sauvage. He cultivates his vineyards with an organic philosophy and his wines are made using the natural yeasts from his grapes.
