“A fruity, mouth-watering vintage!”
“The 2022 Côtes du Rhône Les Peyrouses offers notes of tart cherry, red plum, and earth, enhanced by hints of violet and leafy green. Medium-bodied and elegant, it is round and refined, with an approachable profile.” (Vinous 2024)

About the estate:
Alain Voge joined his father at the family estate in 1958. By phasing out mixed farming, replanting abandoned hillsides, and selling directly by the bottle, he got the vineyard back on track; today, 12 hectares are cultivated using organic and biodynamic methods. He is regularly recognized for his Cornas and Saint-Péray wines.

About the estate:
Despite the weather challenges of 2021, General Manager Lionel Fraisse had a smile on his face when I rang the doorbell of the small tasting room in the village of Cornas. I thought I caught a glimpse of Madame Voge behind the curtains to my right, where she has continued to live since Alain’s death in 2020. There will be no Saint-Péray Ongrie starting in 2021, nor any sparkling Saint-Péray starting this year, says Fraisse, as these vineyards were devastated by frost and mildew. Furthermore, Fraisse stated that no decision had yet been made regarding the separate bottling of a 2020 Chapelle Saint Pierre and a Vieilles Fontaines. Fortunately, the 2019 vintages here are solid, with the 2019 Vieilles Fontaines (still in barrel at the time of my visit) particularly impressive. We took advantage of my visit to inquire about certain wines from 2011 and 2001; thus, the owners of these wines will find updated reviews in this report. This organic estate remains a fine source of Cornas and Saint-Péray.

Rated estate (2021 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when tasting the wines from these estates)
About the estate:
The entire vineyard has been certified biodynamic since 2013. The estate boasts exceptional hillside vineyards, all of which are tended entirely by hand. The presence of old vines also contributes to producing wines with a strong personality. The Fleur de Crussol cuvée, located in the La Côte vineyard, comes from vines over 70 years old. Since the 2015 vintage, the Terres Boisées cuvée has borne the name of the plot from which it originates: Ongrie, situated on granitic alluvial soils. There is also a change for Les Vinsonnes, which becomes Les Côtes, named after this terroir located in the village of Mauves. For reds, Les Vieilles Fontaines comes from 80-year-old vines planted on weathered granite.
