One of the domain’s oldest classics, Les Vieilles Vignes has withstood the test of time with great success. Leave for a couple of years in the cellar so it can express all the talent of Alain Voge. More info

A great classic of the domain, this cuvée is also the oldest. Made from vines aged around 60 years old, deeply rooted in old granite soils, it is made using environmentally-friendly methods. The berries are harvested manually, partially stemmed and fermented with native yeasts before maceration for several weeks in stainless steel vats. During this time, Alain Voge and his team carried out regular punch-down and pump-over: up to twice a day. Just as its success transcends decades, so too will the bottle you purchase: its ageing potential is amazing. Leave it for a good twenty years in the cellar before enjoying it with a fine platter of game.

Cornas Vieilles Vignes Alain Voge (Domaine) serve at a temperature of 16°C. It will pair perfectly with the following dishes: Sauté d'agneau aux champignons, Canard aux navets, Grives aux raisins.

    Information about domain Alain Voge

    In 1958, Alain Voge joined his father working the small family farm and decided abandon polyculture and devote the entire land to the growing of vines. The northern Rhône appellation Cornas owes much to this winemaker who has contributed greatly to putting this unknown appellation on the map. Today, the family has vines in several appellations: Cornas (6.5 ha), Saint-Péray (4ha), Saint-Joseph and Côtes-du-Rhône (red). 13 hectares are tended to using organic and biodynamic prinipals (certified since 2013).
    The property was associated with Albéric Mazoyer, the former technical directer of Chapoutier, from 2004 to 2018, and with Lionel Fraisse from 2018, who stepped in particularly after the sad passing of Alain Voge in 2020.
    His Syrahs are world renowned, as are his whites and sparkling wines from Saint-Péray. The concentrated and lively wines wines can be savoured both in their youth and after ageing. A stand-out producer from the region.
