Cornas 2003 - Thierry Allemand

Tasting notes

In 2003, due to extreme weather conditions, Thierry Allemand produced only one cuvée of Cornas, primarily from the "Reynard" vineyard, known for its old Syrah vines. This vintage, rare due to very low yields, is distinguished by intense aromas of red and black fruits, with notes of licorice and violet. On the palate, it is rich, with flavors of blackberry and cassis, and soft tannins. This wine has become a sought-after rarity, fetching high prices on the market.

INFORMATIONS ABOUT THE ESTATE

Thierry Allemand is a renowned winemaker from the Cornas appellation in the Northern Rhône Valley. With his 5 hectares of terraced vineyards, he produces exceptional wines that combine tradition and innovation. His approach respects nature, with low yields and winemaking without new oak barrels, allowing his cuvées to develop great aromatic complexity.

Among his standout cuvées, Reynard and Chaillot are particularly notable. The Cuvée Reynard (or Cuvée R), sourced from old vines over 60 years old on limestone soils, is a powerful yet elegant wine, with aromas of dark fruits, dried herbs, and black olives. This wine is appreciated for its minerality and depth, which evolve over time. On the other hand, the Cuvée Chaillot, from younger vines, expresses rich dark fruit aromas with subtle spicy and smoky notes. These wines are the perfect expression of the Cornas terroir, combining concentration and finesse for an unforgettable tasting experience.

The cuvées of Thierry Allemand, particularly Reynard and Chaillot, are highly sought after by wine enthusiasts and professionals for their exceptional quality and aging potential. Each vintage is a true tribute to the Cornas terroir and the winemaker’s craft.
