Domaine Courbis Cornas Les Eygats 2019

The one hectare, single-vineyard, terraced Cornas Les Eygats site is situated at a relatively high 250 meters of altitude. It has pure, decomposed granite soil and an ideal south-east exposure. The vines are 20 years old. Les Eygats is the last to be harvested. Benefits from 3 weeks of vatting to extract as much color and flavor as possible.

It is aged entirely in barriques for 16 months, of which 50% are new and 50% one-year old. A highly concentrated wine, packed with mineral-tinged smoky black fruit that can age for many years but is always inviting when young.
