Description

Today, Gilles farms just 2.5 hectares, working by hand the famed Chaillot vineyard that he leased from Robert Michel. His traditional approach means zero de-stemming, aging in large neutral barrels, and no fining or filtering. That quintessential combination of roasted meats, violets, blackberries, smoke, black pepper, and the granitic “scorched earth” that Cornas derives its name from is always front and center.
