Domaine Vincent Paris, Cornas 'La Geynale' 2021
The Domaine Vincent Paris Cornas ‘La Geynale’ 2021 is a striking, powerful expression of Cornas. In the glass, it’s almost opaque, with aromas of blackberries, cassis, cracked pepper, and warm spice unfolding into hints of smoked meat and earth. The palate is dense and richly layered - waves of dark fruit, graphite, and spice balanced by an almost electric minerality. The tannins are firm yet silky, giving structure without heaviness, and the finish seems to go on forever. A wine of power and precision. La Geynale comes from Vincent’s oldest vines, over 100 years old, planted on the steep, south-facing slopes of the Reynard district, one of Cornas’s most revered terroirs. The wine spends a year in used oak barrels (none new) to preserve purity. Vincent Paris farms just eight hectares in Cornas and Saint-Joseph, working meticulously to keep yields low and quality high. His thoughtful approach in both vineyard and cellar has made him one of the Rhône’s most admired winemakers.
Savigny-lès-Beaune Premier Cru 'Champ Chevrey' Monopole, Domaine Tollot-Beaut 2019
Champ Chevrey is a Monopole; the Tollot-Beaut family is the only owner which is unusual for Burgundy, and it produces the most structured wines of the two Savigny-Lès-Beaune premier cru appellations. It is situated just below the Les Lavières vineyard and benefits from a firmer minerality supporting its fruit. Their 2019 is finely crafted with a mineral spine; a little time in the glass reveals concentrated and fragrant fruit flavours of cherry, cherry blossom and bramble. This has a very refined, tightly packed style of fruit, with a distinctly lively, lifting quality to it. The medium tannins are finely grained but have an appealing hint of astringency.
