2020 Cornas, Les Vieilles Vignes, Alain Voge, Rhône Hidden Gem Deep garnet core with aHailing from 60 to 70 year old vines grown higher up the slopes in the lieux dits of Mazard and La Cte. About 20% whole bunch is included in the ferment and the wine sees 10% new oak adding a subtle twist of spice.
