"A benchmark for Cornas!"

“Aromas of rosemary, wood smoke, and almond. A beautiful fruit-forward profile, more concentrated than most 2023 Cornas wines. Lively, shimmering acidity, with a hint of salinity and a long finish. A mineral-driven expression of Cornas, both lively and full-bodied.” (Decanter 2024)

Food and Wine Pairings

It pairs very well with a cut of beef or a shoulder of lamb when young, and with heartier meats served in sauce or even hare à la royale after a few years in the cellar...

Wine rated (2027 guide) 93/100

Rated estate (2027 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or high-quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)

About the wine:

Les Vieilles Vignes seems more supple, with a full yet airy texture, savory fruit, and a more refined mouthfeel.

About the estate:

Lionel Fraisse carries on the legacy of this estate, long embodied by Alain Voge, an iconic figure in the region who passed away in 2020. The 12 hectares, superbly situated on the slopes of the Saint-Péray and Cornas appellations, are tended with great care. Crafted for long-term aging, the wines are worthy representatives of the very best these two appellations have to offer. There has been noticeable progress in the aging process, though this is less pronounced in the most recent vintages.

Wine rated (2026 guide) 93/100 (Exceptional wine)

Rated Estate (2026 Guide) Recommended (Wine producer recommended by Wine Spectator)

About the wine:

A full-bodied, robust wine that opens with an intense mineral note reminiscent of cast iron, then develops into aromas of woody berries, forest floor, and juniper. As the concentration deepens, it reveals itself to be dense and persistent; its smoky, well-structured finish needs time to unfold. Best enjoyed between 2027 and 2037.

About the wine:

The 2023 Cornas Les Vieilles Vignes reveals a lively and exotic bouquet of red, blue, and black fruits, candied violets, blood orange, as well as peppery notes and hints of bouquet garni. Medium- to full-bodied, it offers a round and complex palate, ripe yet firm tannins, and exceptional length on the finish. Aged for 20 months in 228-liter oak barrels, 10% of which are new, it will be at its best over the next 10 to 15 years. Best enjoyed between 2026 and 2041.
