Dom. Vincent Paris, Granit 60, Cornas, 2019 Red Wine, 100% Syrah, 14% ABV, Dry, FranceBy Winebuyers

This 6-hectare domaine is perfectly situated in the heart of Cornas and has since 1997 made three wines from vineyards cared for with minimal intervention. Grapes for Granit 30 and Granit 60 are grown on east-facing granite slopes and are named after the slope’s degree of incline. These are wines of increasing power but retaining finesse and balance. Granit 60 comes from up to 90-year-old Syrah vines planted on Cornas vineyard slope with a 60 degrees gradient. In the winery, 50% of the fruit is destemmed, and the wine is aged for up to 14 months in old oak barrels. This is a deep, full-bodied and concentrated, Cornas expression with savoury and spice complexity and silky tannins. The wine is a 100% Syrah, with a bold and structured style. It is a dry wine with an ABV of 14% and a drinking window of 2022-2030. It is suitable for drinking with lamb.
