Youthful, exuberant red fruit. Smoky, opulent, rich. Powdery tannic texture and a subtle peppery note.

Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
Similar in style, yet deeper and richer, the 2012 Cornas Les Vieilles Vignes comes from 8-9 different parcels and sees roughly 20 months in 15% new French oak barrels. It's a blockbuster-styled Cornas that doesn't pull any punches in its sexy, ripe and textured personality. Black raspberry, cassis, liquorice, ground herbs and sweet oak all emerge from this polished 2012, and whilst it dishes out plenty of pleasure now due to its wealth of fruit, it will have 10-15 years of longevity.

Domaine Alain Voge

The Alain Voge estate is a producer of Rhône wines. Alain Voge took over the family business in 1962. At that time, the estate was just a vast field of fruit trees planted between a few vines. It wasn't until 1978 that Alain Voge decided to leave his profession as a nurseryman to focus solely on wine production. Taking advantage of the growing reputation of Cornas wines, in 1981 Alain Voge began significant renovation work on his vineyard. Over the years, and after hard work, Alain Voge developed his estate and created new cuvées under several appellations: Saint-Péray, Saint-Joseph, Cornas and Côtes du Rhône.

Today, the Alain Voge estate covers nearly 13 hectares. The average age of the vines is 50 years and harvesting is done by hand. The grape varieties produced are Syrah for the reds and Marsanne for the whites.

In 2006, the Alain Voge estate began its conversion to organic viticulture, in order to adopt an eco-responsible approach. This conversion started with the white wine parcels, followed by the red wine parcels in 2009. It wasn't until 2016 that the estate obtained organic and biodynamic farming certification.
