Even better than the 2012 - and one of the greatest Cornas I've ever tasted - the 2010 Cornas Vieilles Fontaines comes from a tiny plot of old vines and granite soils named after the fountain located near the vines. Sensationally concentrated, powerful, backward and tasting like the essence of these steep granite slopes, it gives up loads of cassis, freshly crushed rock, wood smoke, black raspberry and roasted meats.This full-bodied beauty is as profound as they come, yet needs 4-5 years of cellaring and will keep for 20-30 years. Robert Parker rated this beauty 100 points on release and I can only agree with him. Hats off to Alain Voge and winemaker Albert Mazoyer.

Domaine Alain Voge is a family estate in the Northern Rhone. In 1958 Alan joined his father’s small farm and began specialising in wine. He tirelessly restored land in Cornas and Saint Peray that used to make great wine decades before. Using biodynamic practices they make traditional styled wine with real gravitas. We were saddened to learn that Alain Voge passed away on Wednesday 2nd September 2020. As such a towering figure in the history of Cornas, Alain is irreplaceable and will be hugely missed. But we are confident that the team at Domaine Alain Voge will honour his memory with a continuation of his incredible work.
