Vincent Paris 'La Geynale' Cornas 2024

Vincent Paris 'La Geynale' Cornas 2024 is a remarkably profound, deeply colored, and structured Northern Rhône red wine made entirely from Syrah. Cultivated from the estate's oldest centenarian vines—originally planted in 1910 by the producer's great-grandfather—this flagship bottling hails from the iconic, steep, south-facing granite slopes of the Reynard district. Fermented with 100% whole clusters and aged exclusively in neutral oak barrels to honor its pristine sense of place, the wine reveals an opaque purple profile and an incredibly intense bouquet of crushed blackberries, ripe cassis, and macerated wild plums. Complex notes of cracked black pepper, violets, graphite, licorice, and savory hints of smoked game seamlessly intertwine on the full-bodied palate. It is supported by a massive yet refined tannic architecture and an electric, mineral-driven acidity that promises immense longevity.

Food Pairing: This powerful Northern Rhône Syrah matches perfectly with roasted rack of lamb, venison medallions, a rich wild boar stew, or matured mountain cheeses.
