True values can always be found in Cote du Rhone wines. It is a category where a talented wine producer can make a great wine at a value as an introduction to their other wines from the Rhone Valley. The Domaine of Alain Voge is an excellent example whose philosophy is to practice handmade viticulture on the slopes of the Rhône right bank, dedicated to Syrah. Since its inception several generations ago, Domaine Alain Voge has always been a family domain in Cornas. In 1958, Alain Voge joined his father to work on the typical small farm. Domaine Alain Voge helped to re-establish the appellations of Cornas and Saint Péray on the international wine scene.
The way I found out about this wine is that Tim G called me from the sales floor and said I needed to come down there to try this Cotes du Rhone right away. I tried it with several wine geeks, and we all were floored by how good this wine is. Because this wine is fantastic, we bought all that the distributor had left of this vintage. The average internet price is $29. They gave us a good price for buying everything, and we want to pass these savings to you. We priced it at $19.99, and with the Yellow Dot discount, this wine costs $15.99 a bottle. You need to add this to your Yellow Dot stash. You won’t be sorry.
Winemaker Notes
Les Peyrouses displays purple color, with an aroma full of fruits and spices. On the palate, the fruitiness with notes of licorice and hints of pepper. The wine is full and well-rounded, with supple tannins. A typical Cotes du Rhone Syrah, full of freshness and finesse, with a good tannic structure.
100% syrah
Critical Acclaim
Saturated ruby. Smoke and spice-accented cherry and dark berry scents are complicated by hints of candied flowers and licorice. Supple and broad in the mouth, offering pliant blackberry and bitter cherry flavors that become sweeter as the wine opens. A floral pastille note appears on the clinging finish, which shows very good clarity and smooth, even tannins. Vinous 91 pts.
when you purchase 12 or more bottles of any wine, this price is on a bottle.
