Thiérry Allemand
For decades, Cornas’ reputation was based on the wines of the great traditionalists, Auguste Clape and Noël Verset. Today, this reputation is even stronger thanks to the brilliant work of Thierry Allemand.
Franck Balthazar
As most of his generation in Cornas have embraced modern methods, Franck Balthazar has remained true to the traditional ideas championed by his legendary father and grandfather. Today, working in part with vines from Noel Verset, Franck is making some of the most expressive, and classically rendered, wines Cornas has to offer.
Domaine Barge
When the site is right, and the winemaker knows what he or she is doing, single vineyard wines from Côte Rôtie can be magical. One of our favorite domaines for getting it right is that of the Barge family, whose wines today are second to none as expression of both site and tradition.
Domaine Champet
If one were to search for today’s most purely traditional Côte Rôtie estate—the equivalent of Ch. Rayas or Henri Bonneau in Châteauneuf—it would certainly be Champet. And the fact, that little here has changed over the past fifty years, makes this timeless domaine all the more magical.
Jean-Louis Chave
Wine growers in the Northern Rhône since 1491, the Chave family has emerged in the past half century as one of the preeminent growers not only of Hermitage and St. Joseph, but of the world.
Auguste Clape
Cornas is one of the world’s few blue-chip addresses we still associate with traditional winemaking. For this, we can thank Auguste Clape and his unwavering commitment to Cornas tradition.
Jean-Paul et Corinne Jamet
Always blended from a diversity of terroirs, Jamet’s Côte Rôtie is consistently one of France’s great wines, and a quintessential example of Côte Rôtie’s magic.
Domaine Jasmin
Supremely elegant, Jasmin’s Côte Rôtie is the result of a philosophy handed down through four generations. And until it launched a tiny luxury Côte Rôtie cuvée called “Olea” in 2015, Jasmin was one of the very few domaines to make only one Côte Rôtie—a blend of fruit from the domaine’s eight lieux-dits.
Domaine Rostaing
Domaine Rostaing’s vines represent Côte Rôtie's best sites, as legacies of two immortal growers, Marius Gentaz and Albert Dervieux. His wines honor these giants with their gracefulness and typicity.France
