Cornas Red 2019

Cornas is a prestigious appellation located in the northern Rhône Valley of France. This wine is produced by Pierre Gaillard, a respected winemaker known for quality Rhône wines.

The Cornas Red is made exclusively from the Syrah grape variety, which is the only permitted grape in the Cornas appellation.

The wine is crafted using traditional methods typical of the northern Rhône. Grapes are hand-harvested and undergo fermentation with careful temperature control to preserve varietal character. Aging is typically done in oak barrels to develop complexity and structure.
